SIR, ARE YOU USING ONLY HALF YOUR BRAIN?
|

|
|
|

|
|

|
|
You're pretty smart. We all know that.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
You know all about partial differential equations, computer
|
|||
|
|
programming, cost analysis, flow charts and vectors. If it can
|
|||
|
|
be put into an equation, expressed in human language, or recorded
|
|||
|
|
on a graph, you can handle it.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
When it comes to the semantic circuit of the brain and precise
|
|||
|
|
manipulations of symbol systems, you're a champ. Any everybody
|
|||
|
|
knows it.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
But what about those mysterious right-hemisphere brain
|
|||
|
|
functions? Intuition? Synergetic apprehension of whole systems?
|
|||
|
|
Esthetics and ESP?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Imagine trying to live with one eye, or one lung, or one
|
|||
|
|
testicle.
|
|||
|
|
Isn't it equally a handicap to use only half your brain?

greatest ear in Europe. But that was all he was:an ear."
