This book is not Rational Fasting

[edit]

Note: this book, actually is not Rational Fasting but a partial translation of another book of Arnold Ehret, Kranke Menschen, (Diseased Men) published in Germany in 1912 for the first time by Arnold Ehret itself, of which I have an original copy (2nd edition of 1914).

I also have an original copy of Rational Fasting of Arnold Ehret, first edition of 1926 (this book was published post mortem).

The index on this page is different from the one of the real book. Eventually, the test is only a part of a book with the title of another, although of the same author.

Here you can find the scanned image of the index of the real book and you can see that it's different from the one presented on this page: [Rational Fasting, index of] Both books are similar in the beginning chapters but aren't the same book.

The material published is a part of Kranke Menschen: [Kranke Menschen Title] I'm now unable to give the index (in German) because out of the town.

I dont know how to remove incorrect material in the right way, I hope some admin or expert giving a glance here and handle properly. Than you. Luciano Gianazza —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.208.36.80 (talk)

Based on a cursory search, the text we have was published under the title "Rational Fasting". Other versions of the text known as "Rational Fasting" contain further material which appears to be incorporated from other works by Ehret. Whether these changes were made by Ehret himself, or the publisher of the edition that we have, is not clear to me. However, if we were to obtain a scan of the other work titled "Rational Fasting" we could host that as well. —Beleg Tâl (talk) 11:49, 24 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
