Organon - study aid

[ChristineL]

Hello Drs - I’ve found the Organon a bit difficult to understand...I found this online - would you recommend it for studying?

Lectures on Organon of Medicine Vol 1 Lectures on Organon of Medicine Vol 1: Manish Bhatia: 9788192726502: Amazon.com: Books

Yes, the Organon is difficult book to read, especially if you try to read it in the same way as you would read a novel (straight through).]?

When first read, it's best digested 1 aphorism at a time in order to fully understand it.

Un like Bhatia, the following 2 commentaries on the Organonare mandatory reading.

They are also are more modern and readable books by master homeopaths:

What version of the Organon are you reading?
the great benefit of the Wenda Brewster O'Reilly edition is the very long introduction, and then a summary of most paragraphs in more modern English in the margin.

When you read a paragraph that you do not understand, please post your question and paragraph number - all will benefit!!
