Episode 48- Life & How To Survive It (Part 2 of 3)

Life And Life Only - Podcast autorstwa Antony Rotunno

We continue our sprawling but hopefully enlightening trawl through John Cleese and Robin Skynner’s very readable, entertaining and insightful book ‘Life & How To Survive It’, which is presented as an ongoing dialogue between the doctor and the intelligent layman. One of the many strengths of the book is how it takes concepts and ideas and shows how they can be adapted to various contexts. Among the topics and sub-topics touched upon in this episode are politics, society and its many forms, the continuing quest for the keys to happiness and mental clarity, the differences between British, American and Japanese culture, myths & reality, and the relationship between religion and mental health. As is the usual format, Antony picks some interesting parts from the book, reads them out and then expands on some of the points made. Part 3 will be on its merry way soon We hope you enjoy the show!
