A landmark work in neuropsychology, The Psychology of Left and Right presents a rigorous and compelling examination of lateral asymmetry in humans and animals. Corballis and Beale argue that the distinction between left and right is not merely spatial but is deeply embedded in biological, perceptual, and cognitive processes. The work details how the brain's hemispheric specialisation shapes everything from handedness and directional perception to the broader implications of mirror-image discrimination. Written with academic authority yet accessible in its reasoning, it remains an essential reference for anyone seeking to understand the neurological and psychological underpinnings of laterality.
