Triune Brain Paul MacLean, the former Director of the Laboratory of the Brain and Behavior at the United States National Institute of Mental Health. The neocortex constitutes five-sixths of the human brain. The neocortex makes language, including speech and writing possible. It renders logical and formal operational thinking possible and allows us to see ahead and plan for the future. The Limbic System, the second brain to evolve, houses the primary centers of emotion. The Reptilian Complex consists of the brain stem and the cerebellum. Its purpose is closely related to actual physical survival and maintenance of the body. The cerebellum orchestrates movement. Digestion, reproduction, circulation, breathing, and the execution of the "fight or flight" response in stress are all housed in the brain stem. Wizz Training Accelerating Your Learning
