Arnold Pick (July 20 1851 in Velké Meziříčí – April 4 1924 in Prague) was a German neurologist and psychiatrist. He is known for identifying the clinical syndrome of Pick's Disease and the 'Pick bodies' that are characteristic of the disorder. He was the first to name reduplicative paramnesia. He was also to use the term dementia praecox (in 1891)[1] .
