The Reluctant Homeopath: An unexpected science story The Reluctant Homeopath: An unexpected science story

I find myself wondering how I ended up here - a homeopath. What a ludicrous system of medicine it seemed to be. Based on 'similars' and utilising highly diluted substances, it doesn't get much weirder than this. And yet here I am.

How do we reconcile the parts of ourselves that are seemingly at odds? And how to do this when we need to reframe everything we understand to be certain? Wellington-based science communicator and alternative health practitioner Vanessa Young draws on decades of work in both her chosen fields to explore these questions and comes to the provocative conclusion that science and homeopathy are not as far apart as people think. Her journey, told with compassion and humility and supported by experience, is that surprising thing: an unexpected science story from a reluctant homeopath.
