In 1910, Emil Kraepelin named the condition with the eponym of "Alzheimer's disease” (AD) that is, now, the most common neurodegenerative disease with more than 25 million cases worldwide and a major medical problem nearing catastrophic levels. The present article discusses Alzheimer's work in the context of his life and time.
