The Left and Right Brain

As you know, we have a left and right brain. The front half of the brain contains some of its more complex thinking and activity while the back of the brain is more involved in processing basic data and solving simple problems. This is memory.

The right brain drives the left side of the body, the left brain drives the right.

Having said this about the left and right brain, I have also run across articles stating that this might not be. Information is shared with both sides of the brain. Both sides work on a problem but they work differently, approaching a problem form different directions. This argument is akin to the “modular” debate where things are not as precise and easy to map as we once hoped.
