The pitfalls of clinical case research: lessons from the Delphi project
Article Abstract:
The Delphi Project was started in 1997 with the basic idea of gathering homeopathic case reports and making them available for comparison and study. Several years of work on the development of this project has brought to the fore many of the challenges and pitfalls of clinical case research in homeopathy and it appears that creating a coherent community within homeopathy is a necessary precondition for successful clinical case research.

Patient-practitioner-remedy (PPR) entanglement part 4: towards classification and unification of the different entanglement models for
Article Abstract:
An attempt is made to classify and unify various models for entanglement in homeopathy currently on offer, and to see if they are simply different ways of perceiving and expressing the same underlying unity. The new combined model invokes a geometry of patient-practitioner-remedy embedded in a therapeutic state phase.
