This book focuses on the widely debated origin of syphilis, an infectious disease which emerged in the late 15th century and dramatically impacted humanity. The author challenges the widely held belief that syphilis existed in ancient times, delving into historical accounts and medical evidence to provide a definitive answer to its origins. Drawing from extensive research, the author traces the disease's beginnings to the arrival of Spanish explorers in the New World, highlighting the role of the indigenous population and their medical knowledge in shaping its course. The book not only establishes a clear timeline for the emergence of syphilis but also provides a comprehensive exploration of the disease's symptoms, treatments, and the impact it had on societies around the globe.
