Brain Laterality answers one of the major questions we ask ourselves every day: where? The book provides a thematic, comprehensive overview of the brain mechanisms that influence whether we go to the left or right, on which side we stand, and which hand we use.

Covering a broad range of topics, including handedness, apraxia, and motor control, alongside theories of emotion, creativity, and genetics, the book condenses a vast amount of research from multiple fields into a concise and entertaining read.

Featuring anecdotes from the author's own illustrious research and clinical career, this book is a must-read for psychology students, neuropsychologists, neurologists, and anyone interested in the brain's role in handedness, directional movement, intention, action, and posturing.

Kenneth Heilman is a Distinguished Professor Emeritus in the Department of Neurology at the University of Florida and a staff neurologist at the Gainesville Veterans Affairs Medical Center. He has been the author, co-author, and editor of 20 books, more than 670 journal article, and 115 chapters, as well as being honored by many neuropsychology and neurology organizations.
