Iain McGilchrist - The Divided Brain and the Making of the Western World by theosthinktank published on 2014-11-14T10:23:51Z Iain McGilchrist is a psychiatrist and writer, former Fellow of All Souls’ Oxford and author of the highly acclaimed book The Master and his Emissary: The Divided Brain and the Making of the Western World. In modern Western culture the prevalent view is that those who believe that there is more to the world we experience than scientific materialism would suggest are simply fantasising, and are clinging to outmoded habits of thought. This is fundamentally mistaken. Image - Allan Ajifo https://www.flickr.com/photos/125992663@N02/ Genre Iain McGilchrist
