At a time when more & more people are facing extended periods of time at home or in isolation because of #CoronavirusOutbreak, you may be interested in a @BBCRadio4 series I made in Sept 2018 called 'Morality in the 21st Century' (h/t producers: Christine Morgan & @dondantini).

In this five-part series (and the extended conversations) I explored some of the big moral questions of our time, including the need to move from an 'I' to a 'We' society. All episodes and extended conversations are available here: bbc.in/3cyZDXS.

As part of the series, I spoke to some of the world's most brilliant thinkers incl. @jordanbpeterson, @noreenahertz, @jean_twenge, @nytdavidbrooks, @JonHaidt, @RobertDPutnam, @mustafasuleymn, Prof Nick Bostrom, @sapinker, @melindagates & Prof Michael Sandel.

I also spoke with groups of hugely impressive and inspiring 6th form students from a number of UK schools - @queensch, @MGSMagic, @MHSG, @loretocollege & @GraveneySchool who gave me so much hope for the future.

All these ideas have come together in my new book: "Morality: Restoring the Common Good in Divided Times" (out now in UK -> amzn.to/33nzJlq @HodderFaith / out in Sept '20 in US -> bit.ly/2w5qYR7 @BasicBooks). #Morality #CommonGood #DividedTimes #Hope
