Friends,
I previously announced to this list that I am presently working on
the most important book of my life. This book will be one of the few that
will intrigue readers whether they have a personal interest in homeopathy or
not...
It is both surprising and impressive to learn that so many of the
most famous and most respected people of the past two centuries have chosen
homeopathic medicine as a first or primary method of treatment for
themselves and/or their family. This book will describe homeopathic
medicine as a modern and even futuristic medical science and art, and it
will do so in the context of telling stories about famous people and their
interest in, advocacy for, and experiences with these powerful natural
medicines. Important principles about homeopathy and about real healing
will be discussed within the stories about the homeopathic experiences.
This book will be published in the Fall of 2007.
Although I have written most of the book already, I am continually
trying to expand upon it, add more details to the people I already have in
the book, and adding new people (and I'm doing this every day!).
If, by chance, you happen to know information about any of the
people listed below OR if you happen to know other people I should add to
the book, please send this information on to me. If possible, I would
appreciate whatever references you have to this information (I wish to avoid
hearsay and prefer to use information that has been published elsewhere or
that can be documented in some way). That said, even if you have just heard
of a famous person's interest in homeopathy, please let me know, and I will
do whatever I can to uncover whatever truth I have verify about it.
Finally, if any of you have a special interest in any of the below
chapters and can agree to provide to me feedback/critique of the content and
tone of the chapter, I may choose to show it (or them) to you. I will,
however, only do this with people I personally know or people who can email
me to say why they would like to see a specific chapter (please note that it
is absolutely necessary that anyone who requests a chapter will keep the
information about this new writing CONFIDENTIAL until the book's
publication. If you are interested, please email me and request a SPECIFIC
chapter(s).
