    I learned of the Triune Brain through Carl Sagan's book The Dragons of Eden. It was an engaging, story-telling approach to a somewhat, in hindsight controversial concept. It sounds (oversimplified) like the paper the article describes here is an embryological validation of this model.

      The Triune Brain model is poo-pooed by modern science, but this study partially vindicates it.
