Homeopathy as a discipline was developed prior to or
      without regard to the modern principles of pharmacology, biophysics and
      pathology.  It was developed as a reaction to the unscientific and
      barbarous practices used by physicians of the late 18th and early 19th
      centuries.  The philosophy behind homeopathy laid out here is that
      which was originally conceived by Hahnemann. 
      Many individuals have embellished homeopathy or incorporated it into other
      practices (such as naturopathy).  Each of the links below discuss
      important facets of homeopathy as described by Hahnemann.
