  • Jules Evans on BBC Radio 4

    Jules Evans, author of "Philosophy for Life and Other Dangerous Situations", explores what ancient Greek and Roman philosophy can tell modern society about wellbeing, for the Four Thought strand on BBC Radio 4. His talk was in front of a live audience at the RSA. Jules celebrates the link between modern psychotherapy and the wisdom of Socrates, the Stoics and other ancient philosophers but warns that the new politics of happiness is in danger of becoming illiberal.
