Mostly to annoy Allen Esterson, I draw people's attention to a new 
short bio (Gabbard, 2004) of the great man in the American Journal of 
Psychiatry (with the standard deep-thinking portrait). According to 
Gabbard:

"Modern neuroscience has confirmed many of his basic tenets. Freud 
predicted that psychoanalytic understanding would ultimately be 
wedded to breakthroughs in the study of brain mechanisms, and his 
dream is now coming to fruition."

Yeah, right.
