Giants of Science: Sigmund Freud

Product Description

Sigmund Freud (or "my golden sigi" as Mama Freud called him) wanted to be great, famous - someone whose statue would stand prominently in parks. And famous he became. But he does qualify as a "Giant of Science"? Certainly his road to greatness had some peculiar detours. As a young physician, he was convinced that cocaine was a miracle cure for nervous afflications. And at one time he traced the root of all ailments - both physical and emotional - to a single organ...the nose.
