    THE PSYCHOLOGY OF LEFT AND RIGHT
    MICHAEL C. CORBALLIS / IVAN L. BEALE
    Originally published in 1976, this title deals with the problem of how we tell left from right. The authors argue that the ability to tell left from right depends ultimately on a bodily asymmetry, such as preference for one or the other hand, or dominance of one side of the brain. This has implications for child development, reading disability, navigation, art, and culture. ...

    THE TRUTH ABOUT LANGUAGE
    MICHAEL C. CORBALLIS
    Evolutionary science has long viewed language as, basically, a fortunate accident—a crossing of wires that happened to be extraordinarily useful, setting humans apart from other animals and onto a trajectory that would see their brains (and the products of those brains) become increasingly complex.   But as Michael C.

    THE WANDERING MIND
    MICHAEL C. CORBALLIS

Somewhere in the middle of the next paragraph, your mind will wander off. Minds wander. That’s just how it is.   That may be bad news for me, but is it bad news for people in general? Does the fact that as much as fifty percent of our waki...
