Iain McGilchrist is a psychiatrist and philosopher. He has written two recent books, The Master and His Emissary, and The Matter with Things (2 Volumes) on the mechanism and consequences of the divided brain theory. This talk, an address given at the Darwin Medical College of Cambridge University, is an overview of right hemisphere versus left hemisphere cognition, and attempts to explain how the linear, logical, abstracting, intolerant, rigid, grasping tendencies embodied in left-hemispheric cognition have won out over the holistic, fluid, explorative, and uncertainty-tolerant right-hemisphere, propelling much of our social and political chaos in the process.
