Robert Evan Ornstein

    Robert Ornsteins breed opgezette en multidisciplinaire werk duikt diep in de aard van de menselijke geest en hersenen. Zijn baanbrekende onderzoek naar hersenlateralisatie heeft ons begrip van cognitie aanzienlijk vooruitgeholpen. Met zijn boeken, vertaald in tal van talen en miljoenen keren verkocht, beoogt hij cruciale ontdekkingen over de menselijke natuur onder de aandacht van het grote publiek te brengen. Hij richtte het Institute for the Study of Human Knowledge op om deze inzichten te verspreiden.

      Robert E. Ornstein reexamines what is known about consciousness today & answers the question "What is consciousness?" thru a consideration of intuition & reason. He goes beyond the theory that creative impulses originate in the right side of the brain & rational impulses originate in the left side to show how a synthesis of these two functions can bring about "a more complete science of human consciousness with an extended conception of our own capabilities."
