About the book

Hahnemann’s discovery was a revolutionary concept in medicine. Rather than suppressing the symptoms of disease, one could use a substance that mimicked the disease and actually cured it. Hahnemann’s method was so successful that it was adopted by thousands of doctors around the world.

Before long, Homeopathy was in demand at every level of society, from working class people to the most affluent – even to kings and queens! Today this healing art is the second most popular form of healing in the world and is practiced by hundreds of thousands of board certified physicians.

At Hpathy.com we realized that something was missing and we asked the homeopathy community to help fill this gap. On Oct 17th, 2012 we announced the first ever International Homeopathy Short Story Contest. Scores of homeopaths and enthusiasts from around the world responded. A team of judges selected sixteen stories from the many we received.

The result was The Fireside Book of Homeopathy Tales. These stories introduce adventure and danger, romance, mystery, mysticism and inspiration. Some stories take place in the present, others are historical and still others are post-apocalyptic. They will take you to exotic faraway places, and places inside you. For all those people who practice homeopathy, for the millions of devotees and for anyone who is fascinated by it, this book will be a joy to read. This anthology is a beginning. We hope there will be many more.
