“The power of the other hand. Unlocking the capabilities of the right hemisphere”

Author: Lucia Capaccione

Publisher: Genesis

Specifications: hardcover, 208 pp.

Why has society chosen one hand over the other for centuries? Why is it so difficult for a right-handed person to perform the simplest actions with his left hand, and for a left-handed person with his right? Why can almost anyone become ambidextrous (a person who is good with both hands)?

The author, with humor and love of life, talks about how she first used her left hand (she is right-handed) in drawing and writing and discovered an amazing source of exercise and therapy for yourself. Drawing on historical evidence, scientific theory, and neuropsychological research, Lucia Capaccione describes the opportunities we miss when we choose to use only one hand in everyday tasks and thus do not exercise the other hemisphere. The book consists of theoretical data and practical techniques; the author has been using the described exercises in his work as a psychologist and art therapist for decades.
The publication is intended for both specialists and readers interested in psychology, art therapy and creative self-development .
