In the 1980s Jeffrey Holtzman of Cornell University Medical College found
that each hemisphere is able to direct spatial attention not only to its own
sensory sphere but also to certain points in the sensory sphere of the oppo-
site, disconnected hemisphere.24 In other words, certain resources in the left
brain are freely available to the right brain and vice versa. The two brains
therefore use the other brain for certain parts of the processes that are initi-
ated and concluded in the other brain. Co-operative processing and sharing
of resources must be borne in mind when talking about the dichotomy of
tasks between the right and left brains.
