Gottlieb Burckhardt references

I think the footnote is excessive for a mention of Burckhardt in the introduction. Perhaps some of the references will be useful for the Burckhardt article - also the bit about how different authors treat the subject. I think the Kotowitz reference is enough to make the point - perhaps there is another one you feel is especially relevant? .^[1]

While the purpose of the operation was aimed towards the alleviation of mental symptoms attendant on the condition the procedure did not aim to interfere directly with brain tissue and therefore it has been excluded from most conventional accounts of psychosurgery.
