Bøker av George W. Carey

In 1894 George W. Carey published this lengthy thesis, in which he describes his biochemic system and the use of various chemicals to alleviate certain conditions.The components of Carey's research involve a variety of ideas combined with existing knowledge. Traditional remedies, anatomical and physiological descriptions, symptoms of medical ailments, and the concept of the human body as a single chemical formula unite to form the author's theory of treatment. Carey subscribed to the idea that diseases were comprised of mineral imbalances, and could thus be managed with the use of various chemicals. A series of common ailments are examined in this manner.Today, George W. Carey's work is mostly read by those with an interest in homeopathic, New Age or occultist spiritual and wellness concepts. Conventional medicine and the scientific community have long rejected the claims put forward in this and other books by Carey, pointing to contrasting data accumulated through many studies conducted over decades through use of the scientific method. Nevertheless, the notion of a biochemic explanation for medical issues attracted a following which remains to this day.

George Washington Carey (1845-1924) was an American physician known for a number of 1910s 'Chemistry of Life' publications, a subject which he referred to as biochemistry, particularly his 1919 "The Chemistry of Human Life". Carey combined a mixture of religion, astrology, physiology, anatomy, and chemistry, themed particularly with a mineral-based theory of human disease, to develop his theories. Carey is popular among the new-age and homeopathic circles. In the context of a person viewed as a "human molecule", Carey was the first to state that a person's body is a "chemical formula in operation." This title is the first part: "Relation of the Mineral Salts of the Body to the Signs of the Zodiac", of this classic and later publication; "The Zodiac and the Salts of Salvation." With the renewed interest in homeopathy, increased study of astrology and the entrance of the Aquarian Age, this book has gained more importance. It is an attempt to answer all the questions regarding the cell salts.

After digesting the material presented by Carey and Perry, readers will have a new understanding of basic homeopathic principles, as well as being able to tie various homeopathic remedies to the sun signs. Once this is understood, it is reasonable that the position of the Moon and ascendant in the natal chart and even the position of Saturn may well be indicators of homeopathic remedies that are needed by the physical body. For example, when an Aries is too quick to anger, perhaps a regular does of kali phosphate may even out the temper. Or when Virgo is beginning to feel digestive problems, kali sulphate may help balance out the minerals in the body. Nothing beats going to the doctor when needing a diagnosis; however, knowing the basics of homeopathy can also be likened to keeping a first aid kit in the house. ¿In Part I, Dr. Carey relates the parts of the body to the biochemical cell-salts (homeopathic remedies) that were espoused by Dr. Schuessler. Part II, by Inez Perry, enlarges upon the symbolism of the sun types and the basics about the homeopathic remedies. She discusses the twelve sign types in relation to Biblical symbolism, and also combines information from the Kabbalah, masonic texts, eastern and western philosophy, to trace the spiritual symbolism of the signs. She then shows how the twelve basic biochemical remedies work with the sign types. According to Carey and Perry, astrology deals with the body (anatomy) of the Grand Man (the universe), and by analogy, with the human body as it relates to astrological symbolism. The authors bring back to contemporary astrology students the ancient symbolism that was once common knowledge to astrologers.
