Overreliance on a single source

Does anyone else think it might be a bit of an issue that so much of this article cites one specific source for its information (Koukopoulos, A (January 2003). "Ewald Hecker's description of cyclothymia as a cyclical mood disorder: its relevance to the modern concept of bipolar II". Journal of Affective Disorders. 73 (1–2): 199–205. doi:10.1016/S0165-0327(02)00326-9. PMID 12507752.)

This is an article describing the thinking of a nineteenth-century psychiatrist, and I imagine that thinking has progressed at least a little since then.
