These are examples of drawings done by each hand of a split brain patient.  You can see that the right hand (left hemisphere) is clearly lacking in spatial reasoning and the ability to get the depth of the original images, while the left hand (right hemisphere) is clearly better at this type of task.  For more information about split brain patients, see yesterday’s post. > [Image Source, Fig 13.8]

I am fascinated by split brain.

Split-brain is a lay term to describe the result when the corpus callosum connecting the two hemispheres of the brain is severed to some degree
