When Hahnemann was developing his system of medicine, there was no well established theory of atoms or molecules - consequently no one objected that the very high dilutions that he was using would remove all traces of the original mineral.This objection to Homoeopathy is a reltaively modern one. Modern atomic theory of matter has come to be well established only in past hundred years or so. So the intellectual resistance to Homoeopaty is understandable in light of Kuhn’s ideas,but how should one regard efficacy of Homoeopathy, keeping in mind Popper’s theory for change in scientific theories? One possible logical conclusion would be that the atomic theory of matter may not right. Other explanations have also been suggested, such as the so called ’memory of water’, without much success, however.
