[Ambrosius Arnoldus Guilielmus Guye, editor-in-chief of the Dutch Journal of Medicine 1884-1889].
Ambrosius Arnoldus Guilielmus Guye (1839-1905) was the patriarch of otorhinolaryngology in The Netherlands. He designed various small surgical instruments and identified the disorder aprosexia, which brought him international recognition. He can be looked upon as a second-generation hygienist. During his brief period as editor-in-chief of The Nederlandsch Tijdschrift voor Geneeskunde (Dutch Journal of Medicine) (1884-1889), he introduced a more stable production process.
