Talking Homeopathic Psychiatry | Jerry M. Kantor

One of my favourite books of the year is Jerry Kantor's Sane Asylums. He joins us this week for an equally-scintillating episode. We explore how homeopathy works, the 19th century heyday of homeopathic psychiatry -including the successful treatment of Abraham Lincoln's widow's 'incurable madness' with three months of homeopathy. And we find out just how it was homeopathy was erased from history and why. (Spoiler: Money.) Really great stuff.  Show Notes Get Sane Asylums. Jerry's website, Vital Force Health Care.
