One of the key books of the early modern period of neuropsychiatric investigation. "Bayle (1822 and 1826) and Calmeil (1826) described chronic inflamation of the arachnoid in the brains of many chronically demented patients. Their work led to recognition of the nosological category of general paralysis of the insane — a clinical syndrome that, with its demonstrated pathological process, soon became the paradigmatic model for mental disease" [John Gach, "Biological Psychiatry in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries" in Edwin Wallace and John Gach, eds. History of Psychiatry and Medical Psychology (Springer, 2007)]. Bayle first correlated the symptoms of physical paralysis and progressive dementia in his 1822 thesis Recherches sur l'arachnitis chronique. The present work is the classic description (GPI came to be called "la maladie de Bayle").

Mostly devoted to close examination of the text of the Spanish surgeon Ruiz Diaz de Isla's 1539 Tractado contra el mal serpentino, the major source for subsequent belief in the American origin of syphilis, which belief Holcombe demonstrates was mostly based on rumor, since modern authors citing Diaz de Isla had not read him (nor in most cases even known how late his book was published).

Norman Catalog 1240 (this copy). Krafft-Ebing played a leading role in the solution of the century-long problem of general paralysis of the insane. "[H]is brilliant experimental attempts to inoculate general paralytics with syphilis had yielded very satisfying results. When the paralytics did not respond to the inoculation, he had conclusive proof that general paralysis was due to syphilis, since only those who have once had syphilis cannot contract it" [Zilboorg p. 462].

GM #4792 (1902 1st German edition). The standard period textbook on neurosyphilis. Pages 341 and following discuss the important Globulin test, introduced by Nonne and Appelt around 1910.Nonne received his doctorate from Hamburg University in 1884; served as Erb's assistant in the medical clinic at Heidelberg, then in the surgical clinic in Kiel under Johannes Friedrich August von Esmarch; settled in 1889 in Hamburg as a neurologist, becoming that year head physician in the department of internal medicine at the Red Cross Hospital, and in 1896 director of the department of neurology at the Hamburg-Eppendorf Hospital. Nonne became titular professor of neurology in 1913 and in 1919 received the teaching appointment for neurology at the newly founded University of Hamburg, where he became ordinarius in 1925. Nonne has a number of neurological conditions partly named after him and was probably the foremost authority in the early 20th century on syphilis and the nervous system.
