Christian Friedrich Samuel Hahnemann (/ ˈ h ɑː n ə m ə n / HAH-nə-mən, German: [ˈzaːmueːl ˈhaːnəman]; 10 April 1755 [1] – 2 July 1843) was a German physician, best known for creating the pseudoscientific system of alternative medicine called homeopathy.

The eight authors appointed to write the Bridgewater Treatises were offered little guidance about what was expected of them, and the individual works were varied. [15] In particular, while the series has sometimes been seen primarily as a contribution to natural theology, [16] the authors did not agree about the extent to which humans could acquire knowledge of God by observation and reasoning ...
The doctrine of analogy and correspondence, present in all esoteric schools of thinking, upholds that the Whole is One and that its different levels (realms, worlds) are equivalent systems, whose parts are in strict correspondence. So much so that a part in a realm symbolically reflects and interacts with the corresponding part in another realm.
