It's been a few years however it was a keeper still on my bookshelf.

Overall, a very good read about the differences in brain hemispheres and how they relate to cognitive neuroscience. A major portion of the book was spent on a historical narrative about the origins of neuroscience

First, I'd like to say I paid $.25 for this book. I would've paid $30 for the amusing knowledge I've learned from it. This book served as a biological complement to other books I've read on body language and human behavior. I particularly enjoyed the chapters on lateral eye movements and cognitive activity. It was quite obvious when I had conversations with friends who are engineers and friends who are of the creative and artistic nature. Another memorable chapter talks about pathology and the hemispheres, specifically the neglect syndrome. what a nightmare!

The author also makes clear that many of their conclusions are based on observations and unpublished knowledge. A science which is hard to observe and experiment, much like any other emerging theories.

Reading "Left Brain, Right Brain: Perspectives From Cognitive Neuroscience (Series of Books in Psychology)" was genuinely eye-opening. "Sally P. Springer" zeroed in on topics most people avoid out of fear of confrontation. Respect to "Sally P. Springer" for delivering high-stakes content that matters.

Read in 1984. Not my favorite area of science - life sciences - but this was informative and enjoyable.
