Dear Readers,
Harry van der Zee and Corrie Hiwat have already informed you in the last two issues of LINKS about their motives for transferring the rights to publish LINKS to Sonntag publisher; this is a decision we are very happy with.
MVS Medizinverlage Stuttgart and its imprints Sonntag, Haug and Hippokrates Publishers have a long tradition in homoeopathy and have been dedicated to its development and growth for more than 100 years. We have always seen ourselves as promoters of homoeopathy and as a platform where homoeopaths can bring forward new ideas and discuss different approaches to homoeopathy. Homœopathic Links is also dedicated to linking different views, knowledge and homeopaths from around the world. So, when Harry and Corrie approached us and asked if we were interested in taking off their shoulders the organizational duties of publishing LINKS, we didn't hesitate. It was very clear that all of us share common goals and we are all very excited about this chance to serve LINKS and its readers.
We wish to encourage interaction and cooperation between all authors and hope that those writers contributing to LINKS will bring a new input of ideas and projects to homoeopathy and our homoeopathic progamme and thus to you, our readers.
Harry and Corrie will remain your LINKS editors and will be responsible for the content of the issues. They will guarantee the continuance of the spirit of LINKS, which we will support in every respect. But what will change?
One obvious change is the layout, as you will have already noticed. We have tried to give LINKS a reader-friendly “look” and keep its warm character at the same time.
From 2005 onwards all subscribers to LINKS will have the chance to read the articles published in LINKS online. LINKS will be integrated in Thieme-connect, the databank that incorporates journals published by Thieme Publishing Group. Thieme-connect with its very efficient retrieval function will help you to find the index, articles and subjects from each issue starting with issue 1/2005 onwards that are of interest to you. You will find it under: http://www.thieme-connect.com.
All information on LINKS can be found on the Internet at http://www.homeopathic-links.com. Here you can also take out an online subscription, check the index of former issues (1987 - 2004), find the seminar calender, information about the editors, guidelines for the submission of articles and order back issues.
We sincerely hope that you will like the new “look” and services of LINKS and trust that you will find this very interesting new issue an enjoyable read.
Yours sincerely, Gabriele Müller Head of the editorial office Complementary and Alternative Medicine
P. S. The distribution of LINKS will be organized by our bookseller Frohberg in Berlin. Subscribers have already been sent the invoice for 2005. Unfortunately the possibility to place your subscription online was not mentioned in the accompanying letter.
