These are not what I read years ago, but they are close.
I was reading alot of perceptual psychology back then when I was in art school.
So was interested in this subject. In order to do art, one has to learn to use the right brain or one doesn't get very far.
One book I enjoyed was Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain.
It is a classic now.
I also learned to use auto-hypnosis to improve imagery. Now I use this technique to help with pain control and anxiety.
If you Google using careful keywords you can find just tons of papers.

Research was also done at the McLean Hospital by Fredric Schiffer MD, who studied two split brain patients. The McLean researchers studied the fact that each side of the brain controls the movement of the hand on the opposite side of the body. They devised a way for the left hand to answer for the right brain and for the right hand to answer for the left brain. Their experiment consisted of placing a row of five pegs in front of both the left and right hands of the split brain patients. These pegs represented a response, ranging from no response to an extreme response. The response was made by pointing simultaneously and independently with each hand immediately after the questions were asked. Dr. Schiffer observed that the left brain reported little or no anger toward a question asked about past bullies who had attacked him when he was young. But, his right brain was still upset about his early experiences. Another patient's two brains were asked questions about perceptions of himself. His right side perceived him as good while his left hemisphere thought he was insufficient. Dr. Schiffer and his staff found that each patient's right and left hemisphere seems to have its own opinions and emotions (6).

If you Google Roger Sperry and Michael Gazzaniga, their work is fascinating. I saw a Discovery show years ago about Micheal Gazzaniga searching for consiousness.
