Discuss the accident of Phineas Gage.
Phineas Gage was seriously injured when a metal rod pierced through his skull, which destroyed a large section of his brain. However, he miraculously survived and this accident had left him a changed man.
How does this case study relate to the functioning of the brain.
The changes in his behavior pointed to emerging theories about the location of the brain function, or that certain functions are associated with different parts of the brain. Gage's story had lead scientists to believe that the frontal lobe was involved in personality.
