内容説明

This is an introductory text providing the latest information on how mental functions are divided between the left and right sides of the brain. It explores asymmetry in normal, split-brain and brain-damaged cases, focusing on such key topics as left-handedness, sex differences, psychiatric illness, learning disabilities and theories of consciousness. This edition includes such recent findings as: brain anatomy and physiology as seen through new imaging techniques; biological differences in the way men and women think; and the connection between left-handedness and mortality.
