In the 1920ies
homoeopathy in Germany was revived and the position of the renowned surgeon
August Bier played an important part in that. Members of the
“Studiengemeinschaft für tierärztliche Homöopathie” (Study
Group for Veterinary Homoeopathy) which was founded in 1936 started to
investigate the effects of homoeopathic drugs systematically. The war put an
end to this project.

Some creative
quatations from August Bier :

“If
there weren’t so many professors, medicine would be much easier.”
“A
smart mother makes often a better diagnosis than a poor doctor.”
“Medical
theories are most of the time even more peculiar than the facts themselves.”
“I
never say of an operation that it is without danger.”
“Medical
scientists are nice people, but you should not let them treat you.”

“If there
weren’t so many professors, medicine would be much easier.”
