Exploring a 19th‑century clash over healing power and medical authority. A rigorous look at whether homoeopathy is a legitimate science or a form of quackery.
In An Appeal Unto Caesar, George E. Shipman presents a detailed inquiry into homoeopathy and the claims of its practitioners. The text frames a rigorous debate about the ethics, rules, and evidence in medicine, contrasting regular practitioners with homoeopathic doctors. It uses testimonies, quotations, and contemporary commentary to examine the roots of the controversy and the standards used to judge medical practice.
The work engages readers in questions about professional conduct, the testing of medical theories, and the real-world impact of different healing systems. It discusses how doctors these days evaluate competing approaches and what counts as credible proof in medicine.
Ideal for readers of medical history, 19th‑century debates on science, and those curious about how medical professions define credibility.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This insightful book responds to a medical attack against practitioners of homeopathy in the 1850s. It challenges the Cook County Medical Society's condemnation of homeopathic medical doctors as charlatans and imposters. The author presents the medical testimony of respected allopathic physicians, including Dr. Albrecht von Haller, Dr. John Forbes, and others, to demonstrate that physicians who practice homeopathy are educated, honest, and skilled in determining disease. The book provides a thorough context for understanding tensions between allopathic and homeopathic practitioners of the mid-19th century and offers a spirited defense of homeopathy as a legitimate medical discipline grounded in healing principles.
