Progress in basic and clinical immunology within the last two decades has provided profound insight into the immune system and its role in preventing endogenous and exogenous damage. In contrast, disbalances within this system can result in autoimmune disorders which may affect diverse organs and result in distinct clinical pictures. In many of these, however, the individual etiopathogenetic mechanisms are poorly understood and even more their clinical symptoms are hard to treat. The book offers insight into basic mechanisms of autoimmune disorders. It includes neurological, gastrointestinal, ophthalmological and skin diseases as well as current and future therapeutic options including immunomodulatory drugs and different vaccination strategies. By addressing diverse organ systems, both singular and shared features are elaborated. Thus an exchange of ideas is intended across research on single organ systems within a truly interdisciplinary setting.

Auto-immune diseases present an enormous challenge to Medicine, and much work has been done in an attempt to solve their mystery. But despite all these efforts they remain an enigma, and scientific research is still unable to provide the medical profession with the therapeutic tools it needs.With an advance of two centuries, homeopathy offers physicians the way to follow to restore the balance of vital energy, guarantor of our health. Such a path offers many pitfalls, especially when it comes to auto-immune disease, and so long as the practitioner adheres to the rules of classic homeopathy the difficulties may appear insurmountable. If, on the other hand, the sequential method, promulgated by the author for the past thirty years, is adopted, the patient can be brought back to the way of health, with an even more favourable prognosis if the treatment is attuned to the immutable signals we have received from the majestic round of the four seasons ever since the dawn of time.
