neuroscience - Reith lectures

The Reith lectures this year cover neuroscience. Dr Vilayanur S. Ramachandran is a compelling and interesting speaker. He speaks in a very direct manner, yet tells it as an interesting story, he is very listenable to.
Lucy and I have been listening to them whilst cooking over the past few weeks. They cover topics such as how the brain works, Synesthaesia, creativity and religion. I think that this is some of the best radio this year. Audio files and transcripts are available on the Radio 4 website.
