The left-right hemisphere division is thought to be different from what I learned at school.
The left is intuition and the right is the rational mind. Many of the functions I was taught they had are due to an interaction between the two.
However society favours the right mind and has forgotten about the left, which Einstein referred to as a sacred gift.
