Chapter: e. Projection as Left-Hemisphere Over-Dominance

DOI: 10.1558/equinox.43667

Blurb:

The over-dominance of the left pre-frontal cortex provides an understanding of the basis of projection, as it involves the dominance of representations. Diachronic archetypal meaning is difficult to access under this over-dominance, given the left hemisphere’s inability to experience time passing, so it gets reduced to projections that ‘exist’ or ‘don’t exist’.
