This is a revised translation by Dr. Christina van Tellingen and Dr. Ricardo Bartelme. It is the only book written by Rudolf Steiner with a co-author. Presented in the original German with facing pages in English translation, it introduces a new method of medical practice, complementing natural-scientific medicine through the methods and contents of anthroposophical spiritual science. It does not merely impart information, but permits, even requires, the active reader to undergo a training, a development of new capacities. These new capacities permit the practitioner to come to insights into the spiritual aspects of illness, healing substances, and healing processes. Thus, this book is a guide on the path of initiation into the mysteries of healing, so that the practice of medicine can be truly humanized.

Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925) was born in the small village of Kraljevec, Austro-Hungarian Empire (now in Croatia), where he grew up. As a young man, he lived in Weimar and Berlin, where he became a well-published scientific, literary, and philosophical scholar, known especially for his work with Goethe's scientific writings. At the beginning of the twentieth century, he began to develop his early philosophical principles into an approach to systematic research into psychological and spiritual phenomena. Formally beginning his spiritual teaching career under the auspices of the Theosophical Society, Steiner came to use the term Anthroposophy (and spiritual science) for his philosophy, spiritual research, and findings. The influence of Steiner's multifaceted genius has led to innovative and holistic approaches in medicine, various therapies, philosophy, religious renewal, Waldorf education, education for special needs, threefold economics, biodynamic agriculture, Goethean science, architecture, and the arts of drama, speech, and eurythmy. In 1924, Rudolf Steiner founded the General Anthroposophical Society, which today has branches throughout the world. He died in Dornach, Switzerland.
