Description

In his book The Master and His Emissary: The Divided Brain and the Making of the Western World, Dr. Iain McGilchrist paints a picture of our brains and the world in crisis.

This episode is meant to be a primer on "McGilchristian thought" in advance of an upcoming conversation with Dr. McGilchrist himself. My hope with this is to establish some of the "basics" about Dr. McGilchrist's theories so that we can waste as little time as possible in diving right into the many implications of his work and what it reveals.
