Hahnemann (1755-1843) was a German physician who discovered homeopathic medicine, a branch that was not recognized by the American Medical Association and was resisted by pharmacists since he argued that patients benefited from much smaller doses of drugs than were customarily prescribed. Among the proponents of homeopathy were John D. Rockefeller and Mark Twain.
