LEFT AND RIGHT SIDES OF THE BRAIN
The brain is divided in two hemispheres: right and left. The most people use more one than the other, so we developed different skills and ways of thinking according to the hemisphere that we use. This does not mean that we use only one side of the brain.In this text I will explain the skills which are developed according to the hemisphere that we use, as well as some famous people in which those skills made them stand out.
The human nervous system is connected to the brain through a crossover, so that the right hemisphere controls the left side of the body and the left hemisphere controls the right side If you suffer an injury in the left brain, the affected body part will be right, and vice versa. Because of this crossing of the nerve pathways, the left hand is controlled by the right hemisphere, and the right hand by the left hemisphere.
RIGHT BRAIN VS. LEFT BRAIN
Definition
This theory of the structure and functions of the mind suggests that the two different sides of the brain control two different “modes” of thinking. It also suggests that each of us prefers one mode over the other.
Discussion
Experimentation has shown that the two different sides, or hemispheres, of the brain are responsible for different manners of thinking. The following table illustrates the differences between left-brain and right-brain thinking.
LEFT BRAIN FUNCTIONS uses logic detail oriented facts rule words and language present and past math and science can comprehend knowing acknowledges order/pattern perception knows object name reality based forms strategies practical safe | RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS uses feeling "big picture" oriented imagination rules symbols and images present and future philosophy & religion can "get it" (i.e. meaning) believes appreciates spatial perception knows object function fantasy based presents possibilities impetuous risk taking |
