All four of Will’s recent A Point of Views are now available to listen to on the iPlayer: The fun of work – really?; Re-launching National Service; The Fourth Plinth; and, Teaching to the test.

In a three-part series on Radio 4, Will Self asks some of Britain’s key opinion makers to share their conclusions about the nature – and meaning – of our existence. In the absence of certainty, what is it exactly that strengthens their convictions, and how do these inform their everyday actions? How do we live well, in service to a higher purpose – and can we find meaning without one?

Listen to the first part (Science) here and the second part (Philosophy) here. The third part, Faith, will be broadcast on 20 June.
