Critics say that there is no scientific support for homeopathy, and that in many cases the ‘illness’ would disappear naturally anyway. They also say it is possible that simply believing a medicine will work can help the mind to cure same simple illnesses. Homeopathic doctors, on the other hand, say that there is plenty of evidence that homeopathy works – and millions of people who take homeopathic remedies agree with them. Tests have also shown that animals can be cured with homeopathic medicine, and this, they say, proves that it cannot simply be because people believe in it.

One of the problems facing creative people is that their ideas may be too new for the rest of the world. It often happens that people laugh at the work of artists and scientists. Barbara McClintock is a good example of someone who continued to think she was right although for 30 years other scientists thought that she was wrong. Finally, her work proving that genes can make sudden changes in heredity won her the Nobel Prize in 1983.

Florence Nightingale (1820-1910) was a British nurse and hospital reformer. At the age of 34, she took a party of volunteers to work in British military hospitals in Turkey during the Crimean War. She improved the terrible conditions there, reducing the death rate by 40%. She returned to Britain in 1856 to enormous public acclaim and devoted the rest of her life to improving the army’s medical service and developing civic training for nurses and midwives. She founded the Nightingale School for Nurses at St Thomas’s Hospital, London. In 1907, she became the first woman to receive the Order of Merit.

Not long ago, Christopher Reeve had everything. He was a successful actor, famous for the Superman films. But in 1996, when he appeared at Hollywood’s Oscar ceremony, he went in a wheelchair.
Disaster came in 1995 when he fell from his horse and broke his back. The doctors did not expect him to live. However, since then he has made remarkable progress. At first, he couldn’t breathe without a machine, but now he can breathe on his own. His personal campaign to promote research into spinal injuries is also impressive. Christopher has given talks all over the USA about his experiences. This has drawn attention to the issue of spinal injuries.
