Another possible reason he didn't make it into general knowledge in our culture, is that the science wasn't in a place to run with his discoveries. For the same reason, the theories of psychoanalysis filled a void, because the technology wasn't there to develop the science of the brain. Now that the technology is kicking into gear, well, it seems apt to resurrect Senor (el doctor?) Ramon y Cajal, doesn't it?
