= Bibliotheca Medica Neerlandica I, p.167. The first original French edition was published in Amsterdam, 1771. Hagelin p. 125: "Bienville's Nymphomania and Tissot's L'Onanisme, where Latin gave place to the vernacular, made them two bestsellers but they also generated an evil flora of books and pamphlets constantly pouring out all over Christian Europe and North America during the nineteenth century and well up to the 1960s. (...) Bienville's and Tissot's pioneer works (...) are good examples of really bad literature that has caused much more harm and misery than the subject itself. (...) Bienville's Nymphomania and Tissot's L'Onanisme have a permanent place within the history of psychiatry."
