Plastic protected cover. ; 22.5 x 14.5 x 2.4 cms; 364 pages; Gottlieb Heinrich Georg Jahr (1800–1875) was a German-born homeopath and one of the early pioneers of homeopathic medicine. Initially trained in conventional medicine, he became a close associate of Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy, and played a significant role in developing and systematising homeopathic practice. Jahr was instrumental in compiling some of the earliest repertories and materia medica, which helped standardise the selection of remedies based on symptoms. His Manual of Homeopathic Medicine provided a structured approach to remedy selection and was widely used by practitioners. He also contributed to the spread of homeopathy beyond Germany, particularly in France, where he spent much of his career. A prolific writer, he authored several key texts that influenced the growth of homeopathy, including practical guides for both physicians and laypeople. His works focused on the principles of homeopathic prescribing, the importance of individualised treatment, and the systematic classification of remedies. Jahr’s contributions helped establish homeopathy as a structured medical discipline in the 19th century. His repertories and clinical manuals remain important references in classical homeopathy, reflecting his dedication to refining and disseminating Hahnemann’s principles.. Good with no dust jacket .
