Preface

THE steadily increasing demand for this work has exhausted four large editions and necessitated the preparation of a fifth edition. What was intended originally as a mere suggestive guide to the use of a set of valuable remedies has developed by the demands of the profession into a volume comprising the whole of our present therapeutic knowledge of the so-called Twelve Tissue Remedies. Compilation largely from every available source has to sup-plement the authors' personal experience and knowledge of these remedies.

All the published data have been made use of but thoroughly sifted and critically examined. In its present form, we believe this fifth edition will be found a reliable guide to the use of the Tissue Remedies in disease, not only as far as possible, according to the distinctive theory of Schussler, as corrected and modified by him up to the time of his death, but especially according to the finer and more discriminating method of Hahnemann.

The clinical evidence of the truth of Schusslees indic at'ons is overwhelming and since his time they have been largeiy con-firmed by homoeopathic and eclectic physicians, but the need c t thorough systematic provings according to the method of Homoeopathy in order to enlarge and precisionize our knowl-edge of these great medicines is imperative.

Many German editions of Schussler's "Abgelearzte Ther-apie" have been published since the last edition of this work was issued, the therapeutic development of these remedies has made wonderful strides, and our periodical literature during the past few years has contained many records of cures wrought by them. All this has been incorporated and this work, in its present complete and revised form, is the only adequate presentation of the therapeutic possibilities of the Tissue Remedies existent.

We trust that the same consideration accorded to previous editions will be extended to this by aga indulgent profession.
