This monograph is a scholarly catalog of the scientific works that the ingenious neurobiologist Christofredo Jakob (1866-1956) published between 1893 and 1949. Jakob worked in the fields of comparative and evolutionary neuroscience, biology, anthropology, and biogeography. A native of Bavaria, and physician by training, he served as professor of neurobiology at the Universities of La Plata and Buenos Aires in Argentina from 1899 until his retirement in 1945. The covers and title pages of his 52 books are reproduced in color. A complete list of his 260 articles, with full bibliographic information, is also provided, based on extensive research by the author over the past twelve years in European and American Libraries and historical collections.
