Although Alzheimer's disease has been well documented throughout the twentieth century, no biography has been written of the man who was its namesake. This biography is the first, and it covers the life of Alois Alzheimer (1864-1915), his discovery of the disease that currently afflicts some thirty to forty million people, and his subsequent research.
