About this Item

Octavo. 250 pages. Original softcover. Excellent condition with only minor signs of external wear. Inscribed / signed by Karl Gustaf Torsten Sjögren to fellow psychiatrist Erik Strömgren. Karl Gustaf Torsten Sjögren (30 January 1896 27 July 1974) was a Swedish psychiatrist and geneticist. He was born in Södertälje and died in Gothenburg. Torsten Sjögren was professor of psychiatry at Karolinska Institutet from 1945 to 1961. He was elected a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in 1951. Sjögren Larsson syndrome is named after him (along with Tage Larsson) as well as Marinesco Sjögren syndrome. He was also involved in the characterization of juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis. He should not be confused with Henrik Sjögren, after whom Sjögren's syndrome is named. (Wikipedia) Tage Konrad Leopold Larsson (* 11. November 1905 in Stora Köpinge, Malmöhus län; 15. Juli 1998 in Schweden) war ein schwedischer Versicherungsmathematiker, der sich nebenberuflich wissenschaftlich betätigte. Nach ihm wurde (zusammen mit Torsten Sjögren) das Sjögren-Larsson-Syndrom benannt, das eine Form der mentalen Retardierung in Kombination mit einer fortschreitenden spastischen Paraplegie und Ichthyose darstellt, die endemisch fast ausschließlich in Schweden auftritt.
