Until recently, the left hemisphere of our brain has been seen as the 'rational' side, the superior partner to the right. But is this distinction true? Drawing on a vast body of experimental research, Iain McGilchrist argues while our left brain makes for a wonderful servant, it is a very poor master.\r\n\r\n As he shows, it is the right side which is the more reliable and insightful. Without it, our world would be mechanistic - stripped of depth, colour and value.  \"A veritable tour de force, gradually and skilfully revealed.\r\n\r\n I know of no better exposition of the current state of functional brain neuroscience.\"-W. F. Bynum, TLS   \"A profound examination.\"-Philip Pullman   \"Persuasively argues that our society is suffering from the consequences of an over-dominant left hemisphere losing touch with its natural regulative 'master' the right.\r\n\r\n  Brilliant and disturbing.\"-Salley Vickers, a Guardian Best Book of the Year   \"Clear, penetrating, lively, thorough and fascinating. . .\r\n\r\n .
