The Master and His Emissary: The Divided Brain and the Making of the Western World by Iain McGilchristDescriptionNow available in a larger format, a fascinating exploration of the differences between the brain's right and left hemispheres and their effects on society, history, and culture. "A landmark new book. . . . It tells a story you need to hear, of where we live now."—Bryan Appleyard, Sunday Times "A very remarkable book. . . . McGilchrist, who is both an experienced psychiatrist and a shrewd philosopher, looks at the relation between our two brain-hemispheres in a new light, not just as an interesting neurological problem but as a crucial shaping factor in our culture . . . splendidly thought-provoking. . . . I couldn't put it down."—Mary Midgley, The Guardian Named one of the best books of 2010 by The Guardian
