Abstract
The search for the relationship between the brain and the mind is as old as the world. Plato and Hippocrates (400 BC) thought that the brain was the basis of thought. But, Aristotle a century later convinced that the heart was the seat of the mental process and this lasted several centuries. After the medieval obscurantism in the 18th century, phrenology by Franz Gall (1758-1828) appeared. Although he was the first to relate behaviors to brain centers and the shape of the skull (neuropsychology), it was considered at the time as quackery. Later, with the classic description of Paul Broca (1824-1880) on aphasia, due to a left frontal lesion, Neuropsychology was born in France.
