Narcissism

Duration: 42 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC Radio 4 LWLatest broadcast: on BBC Radio 4 FM

Available for over a year

A series of philosophical discussions. Vanessa Feltz asks - are we all narcissists now?

The word narcissist pops up so frequently, it’s hard not to feel like there’s one lurking around every corner. Is narcissism on the rise or is it just an over-used buzzword? What’s the difference between a healthy dose of self-esteem and an unhealthy dose of self-obsession? Is social media turning us into a nation that cares only about ourselves?

Discussing all of these questions and more are Professor Simon Blackburn, Dr Tennyson Lee and Lorna Slade.
