I first came across the Reith Lectures in 2003 with Vilayanur Ramachandran giving a fascinating series of lectures on the brain and perception and for a simple soul like me they made sense. He avoids the dull chemisty stuff and gets right into the interesting stuff- like what is art and how do we percieve beauty.
The lectures start again next week on Radio 4 – The Triumph of Technology. Lord Broers aurgues that Technology is the future for the human race. I can’t wait.
