Viac o knihe

Exploring the connections between brain function and creative expression, this study delves into how neuropsychiatric disorders affect language and artistic experiences like music and poetry. The author identifies specific brain circuits linked to metaphor and religious experiences, proposing that these beliefs can be understood through a biological lens. Emphasizing the role of the nondominant hemisphere, the work presents a compelling argument for the biological basis of spirituality and artistic expression.
