Do You Really Have Two Brains?

The video explores the concept of brain lateralization, debunking myths about right and left brain dominance. It explains how the corpus callosum connects the brain's hemispheres, allowing them to work in harmony. Split brain experiments reveal how separating the hemispheres affects brain function, leading to insights on lateralization. The video discusses how different brain areas handle specific tasks, like speech and spatial processing, and delves into the complexity of consciousness, highlighting the brain's modular structure and the challenges in understanding how these modules create a unified mind.
