Does the corpus callosum connects the two hemisphere of the brain?

It is a large bundle of nervous tissue that connects the two hemispheres of the brain. Most if not all of the communicating between the two hemispheres happens through the corpus callosum. In the past, severing the corpus callosum was a means of helping control seizures; seizure activity starting in one hemisphere could not cross over to the other. Severing the corpus callosum, however, has some unfortunate side-effects. There is a separation of the functions of the two hemispheres that can be difficult to deal with regarding activities like speech, writing and object recognition.
