"The Divided Brain" by Iain McGilchrist

09/10/2019 An exceptional conference with Iain McGilchrist, world-renowned author of The Master and his Emissary. The Divided Brain and the Making of the Western World, psychiatrist, lecturer and former Oxford literary scholar.

Cognition is not one unified relation between the mind and the world, but it is conditioned by the hemispherical division of the brain such that each of us perceives reality in two quite different, potentially conflicting ways. This has important consequences both for how we understand knowledge, belief, certainty, reason and feeling, and for the emphasis put on each of these dispositions at various stages in human evolution and culture.
