This classic work is the result of Dr Hauschka's many years of research at the Ita Wegman Clinic in Arlesheim, Switzerland. Through decades of experimentation, he came to radical conclusions that suggest the possibility of new directions for science. This book includes the detailed results of Hauschka's experiments, though his approach is not restricted to measurement and surface observation. Based on the work of Goethe and Rudolf Steiner, he encourages a method of seeing nature that has an artistic quality and calls for direct experience instead of intellectual theorizing.
The Nature of Substance is accessible, and the author deliberately avoided technical terms and academic style in favor of vivid descriptions and lively discussions. His fascinating study takes in many substances, with chapters on plants, animals, oils, proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, metals, carbon, oxygen, poisons, high dilutions, and much more.
This book is a companion volume to the author's other work, Nutrition, which is also newly available.
