ORGANON OF MEDICINE
In Greece, the word Organon was first used by Aristotle
(384-312BC) this title “ORGANON” was summed up on the
logic treatise of this philosopher.

Francis Bacon (1561-1626AC) wrote “NOVUM ORGANON”
referring to Aristotle’s Organon, and there the secon time
the word is used as a referral to Atistotle’s work.

Samuel Hahnemann, was influenced by the word ORGANON
because his discovery of homeopathic medical science has
some practical relationship. and he wrote the book in style
of aphorisms which were originally Hippocratic. So Aristotle’s
triatise and the Hippocratic aphorisms gave the ORGANON OF
MEDICINE a new use by Samuel Hahnemann,
making of the ORGANON OF MEDICINE, the basis book
of the principles of homeopathy.
