Invented by Portuguese neurologist Egas Moniz in 1935, lobotomy or psychosurgery became widely used in a number of countries, including Denmark, where the treatment had a major breakthrough. In fact, evidence suggests that more lobotomies were performed in Denmark than any other country. However, the reason behind this unofficial world record has not yet been fully understood. .Lobotomy Nation. traces the history of psychosurgery and its ties to other psychiatric treatments such as malaria fever therapy, Cardiazol shock and insulin coma therapy, but it also situates lobotomy within a broader context. The book argues that the rise and fall of lobotomy is not just a story about psychiatry, it is also about society, culture and interventions towards vulnerable groups in the 20th century. | 出版日期 | Book 2021 | 关键词 | Surgical intervention; Egas Moniz; Medical ethics; Medical controversy; Scandinavia; History of psychiatr | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-65306-4 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-65308-8 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-65306-4Series ISSN 2634-6036 Series E-ISSN 2634-6044 | issn_series | 2634-6036 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
