Is a fast-paced lifestyle really better?

Radio 4 in Four

Available for over a year

Being busy is now built in to our modern vernacular, whilst not being busy is seen somehow as a failing. But Carl Honoré challenges this cult of speed in his praise of slowness. He talks to Andrew Marr about how our brains are hard-wired to crave novelty, speed and convenience. But is that a good thing? First broadcast on Start the Week, 21 March 2016.
