...suppose I am the 16,000th letter writer to point out that Dr. Freud's spectacles on cover are shown with the temple frames inverted, or does the artist imply a minor Freudiosyncracy in the way the doctor wore his glasses...

...will you stoop so low as to air the garments of an old rascal-an atheist-such as Sigmund Freud? Your story was superbly done, but have you ever paused to consider that ". . . the rowdyism, riot and revolt of the youth" can be laid at the doorstep of Freud & Co.

Bailey's attack was directed not just against Freudian theory, but against a wide range of psychiatric practices that owe little or nothing to Freud. Psychosurgery, said Bailey, has built a sorry monument of mutilated frontal lobes. "I am frankly appalled by the [aftereffects] of lobotomy and similar operations-abusive and obscene language, uninhibited sexual drive, obnoxious mannerisms, stealing, suggestibility . . .
