John Lennox describes The Matter With Things as one of the books that has most influenced his thinking about AI. He explains McGilchrist's thesis that the brain's two hemispheres attend to the world differently — the left hemisphere narrows and focuses while the right contextualises everything — and that Western civilisation has over-emphasised the left brain for five centuries, leaving us understanding how things work but knowing 'the meaning of nothing.'
