This is an excerpt from an interview with Lionel Milgrom from Rowena Ronson’s book Looking Back Moving Forward
LIONEL: As a chemist I am wedded to the idea of substance, atoms and molecules therefore if you dilute something to nothing, how can it do something? There was the challenge and that, I do believe, is basically what most people find so obnoxious about homeopathy. It flies in the face of everything that you have taken for granted, especially if you are trained in any kind of ‘hard’ (as opposed to ‘softer’ subjects like the humanities, etc) science, for example a chemist or biochemist.

I first met Lionel Milgrom when I went to visit him at Nelson’s for his interview for my book Looking Back Moving Forward . I had read his numerous email contributions on the Society of Homeopaths intranet system, First Class, and his shear brilliance and captivating writing style had totally intrigued me. I was excited about spending a couple of hours in his company. This was back in 2004 and now nearly four years on, we meet regularly for lunch and riveting conversations about homeopathy, science and life. Read more...
TESTIMONIALS FOR RECENT EVENTS
"Thanks for Saturday - it was great. Hilery is such good value; she is such a professional presenter. She knows her brief, says what she's going to say, says it; and is very clear about what she won't be able to cover in the time. In other words she has a realistic expectation of what she'll be able to cover in the time. I really like that I didn't get the feeling there was stuff I really wanted to hear but we just didn't have time for." M.B. homeopath, High Wycombe
"Thank you for organising the seminar on Saturday, it was wonderful." A.C. homeopath, Suffolk
It was a most interesting and informative day yesterday!" L.S. homeopath, London
"Hilery is fantastic. She is so generous with her knowlege." from the seminar feedback form.
Myriam Shivadikar presented a one-day seminar on bowel nosodes on Saturday, 3rd February. Actually there was more than enough material for one day, so a second day was hurriedly arranged, for 28th April. Sighs of relief all round! There were about 40 of us, after a last minute flurry of bookings probably ignited by the level of interest on the ARH e-group when lots of people asked about notes on the seminar as they were unable to attend.
