Left/right brain theories are flawed
Parents are often enticed by ways to improve their child's intelligence so as to improve their chances in life, or adults may be keen to increase their own brain function with the help of various tools.
There are also commonly believed theories that we use only 10% of our brain, and that humans exhibit distinct left/right brain tendencies.
A fascinating programme on Radio 4 called Mind Myths by psychologist Claudia Hammond blows such theories out of the water, and exposes some of these beliefs to be pure myths.
Listen to the programme for the facts!
