Iain McGilchrist

“This finding is remarkable in a number of ways that have not always been appreciated. To begin with, it illustrates that attention is involved primarily not with seeing in itself, but – as far as the left hemisphere is concerned – with the bringing into being of the world, seen or unseen. We can see without attending and we can attend in the absence of sight.”
