Consider Wernicke (receptive) aphasia. This clinical deficit will not occur in lesions of the non-dominant lobe (the left lobe is dominant in about 90% of right handed and 70% of left handed people). However one might describe the function of the posterior superior temporal gyrus (which is lost in this patient), the…
I'd like someone try to tell this to the family members of stroke victims. Lateralization of brain functions is definitely real. It is not manifest in the popularly understood way (left is logic, right is creative, or what have you), but acute insults of language or visuospatial areas can cause permanent loss of…

Somewhere between humans and spiders there is a line, which I am not prepared to place precisely (but which is definitely somewhere between humans and spiders), dividing organisms that have some ethical right to life from those that do not.
While its intent appears to be good and it's not fundamentally wrong, this article is so annoying. Yes, it does point out some common misconceptions many people learned in school, but it does it in probably the most smug and condescending way possible.
