'Divided Brain, Divided World' with Iain McGilchrist

'Divided Brain, Divided World' with Iain McGilchrist

Tue 20 Nov 2018 7:00 PM - 9:30 PM GMT

Ninety One, E1 6QL

Description

Iain McGilchrist's book 'The Master and his Emissary' was a sensation. In it he drew a clear and compelling story of how the history of the western world was best viewed as a gradual takeover by the rational, logical left side of the brain, eclipsing the more holistic right brain.

For the first time he gave firm scientific footing for the idea that we had gradually lost touch with the direct, intuitive, mystical side of our nature. He argues the domination of the left brain is dangerous, leading to disconnection and crisis. One of the most profound recent thinkers, his work offers a hope of integrating many of the divisions in today's culture.

This talk is part of a series of 'Rebel Wisdom Live' events and will take place at Ninety One, 91 Brick Lane
