Another discussion of the book on the BBC: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000r4tq https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000r4tq I used to think of "In Our Time" as the set of topics for which every educated person should have a basic understanding of the facts, hence hold an informed opinion, and be able to enter a meaningful discussion. But now it is approaching ~900 episodes, so the subjects are necessarily becoming more obscure, but that also means there is occasionally a fascinating surprise. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006qykl/episodes/player https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006qykl/episodes/player
