Paolo Mantegazza (Italian pronunciation: [ˈpaolo manteˈɡattsa]; 1831–1910) was a prominent Italian neurologist, physiologist, and anthropologist, noted for his experimental investigation of coca leaves into its effects on the human psyche. He was also an author of fiction.<br />

Mantegazza's published works also included Fisiologia del Dolore (Physiology of Pain, 1880); Fisiologia dell'Amore (Physiology of Love, 1896); Elementi d'igiene (Elements of Hygiene, 1875); Fisonomia e Mimica (Physiognomy and Mimics, 1883); Gli Amori degli Uomini (The Sexual Relations of Mankind, 1885); Fisiologia dell'odio, (Physiology of Hate, 1889); and Fisiologia della Donna (Physiology of Women, 1893). His advanced philosophical and social views were published in a 1,200-page volume in 1871, titled Quadri della Natura Umana. Feste ed Ebbrezze ("Pictures of Human Nature. Feasts and Inebriations"). Many consider this opus his masterpiece.<br />As a fiction writer, Mantegazza was very original. He wrote a romance on the marriage between people with disease, Un Giorno a Madera (1876), which made quite a sensation. Less well known is his science fiction and futuristic romance L'Anno 3000 (The Year 3000, written in 1897).<br />
