Dr.
KAMMERER. (? – 1868)The name appears birth in the
Zeitung
list of 1832 and that of Quin of 1834.He was practicing Homoeopathy at Rothenburg, in Hesse-
Darmstadt.Rapou
says :
I mention that exact homoeopathist, Dr.
Kammerer, who published in 1830 a
memoir in response to a proposition which Hufeland had made to combine the two rival schools in one system. Kammerer contributed to the preservation of Homoeopathy.He was the author of several works. In
1834 Hahnemann wrote a preface to a book by Kammerer. Kammerer’s answer to Hufeland
was published in the Hygea, vol. 5, pt. 3 and 4. and also book
form by Gross, in 1837.Kammerer
thought the
law of Isopathy as correct as Homoeopathy, and relates a case where the
use of Cuprum 30 was efficacious in a case where
copper had been taken with the food.The
Zeitung states :
Dr.
Kammerer, Sr., in Gmund, one of the veterans, and for many years connected with
the Centralverein, died in January of this year (1868). Gmund
is situated in Swabia.
