About this product

Product Information

A magazine advertisement for a luxury automobile calls it a car for the left side of your brain because of its state-of-the-art engineering and a car for the right side of your brain because of its sleek styling. In the past few years, such popular renderings of right brain and left brain functioning have encouraged the belief that the left hemisphere controls symbolic processing and rational thinking, while the right hemisphere controls artistic, intuitive and creative thinking. Joseph Hellige argues that this view is far too simplistic. In this book, he attempts to sort what we know about hemispheric asymmetry from the fanciful interpretations popular culture has embraced.
