But they called him the father of lobotomy, because he made it "famous", also the ice-pick method was his work. Egas Moniz won the nobel prize, surely because Walter Freeman made it so popular.
Just a couple of basic facts: the prefrontal cortex, which lobotomy basically destroys, the responsible for personality and self control. In cases such as extreme Obsessive compulsive disorder a lobotomy (none of this "ice pick" horror) will help, but as far as I know lobotomy in most cases does more harm than good, ESPECIALLY in cases like depression or ADHD where the patient has too little self control rather than too much.
Brilliant!
