Excerpt from Eight Lectures on the Homoeopathic Treatment of Acute and Chronic Bronchitis

That a science of medicine is possible may be fairly predicated when we are enabled to interpret phenomena by the law which rules them. It is surely fair to assume that there is a law of nature in every healthy organization which regulates the various parts and their functions, the term normal recognises the fact, and if the term abnormal means without law, it can only be applied to diseased conditions until it can be proved that in disease there is no law which accounts for the departure from, or none which guides to the restoration of, health. It would be as difficult to believe that if a planet were to be set free from the attraction which keeps it in its orbit it would wander into Space, free from any other attracting force or regulating law.
