Por qué el cerebro humano siempre está en conflicto | Iain McGilchrist, psiquiatra

How does our mind really work? Which myths about the brain’s hemispheres are true, and which are not? British psychiatrist, neuroscientist, and philosopher Iain McGilchrist answers the questions surrounding the universe of the brain. Drawing on examples from patients he has treated in his psychiatric practice, and with a perspective open to both the present and the future of brain evolution, McGilchrist analyzes the consequences of different types of brain damage, as well as their physical and societal effects. Educated at the University of Oxford and author of works such as The Master and His Emissary, McGilchrist has become one of the world’s most respected psychiatrists for his specialization in brain lateralization and mental conditions such as schizophrenia and depression. 00:00 The truth about the brain’s hemispheres 11:22 What are the consequences of brain damage? 17:22 Why do we perceive reality differently? 23:17 Intuition as a guide along the way 31:23 Should we have more sense of humor? 39:17 Is it possible to overcome depression? 48:55 How can we understand others’ truth? 01:01:20 Language and the brain’s hemispheres 01:10:00 The power of the right hemisphere 01:24:20 A new and more empathetic society is possible
