Andrew Marr with Sarah Bakewell, Will Self, Steve Jones and Charles Hazlewood.

Andrew Marr talks to Montaigne biographer Sarah Bakewell, essayist Will Self, geneticist Steve Jones and music director Charles Hazlewood.

Andrew Marr discusses 'How to Live' with the help of Montaigne biographer Sarah Bakewell and the writer Will Self, the geneticist Steve Jones asks how much the mapping of the human genome really tells us about who we are, and the conductor Charles Hazlewood attempts to recapture the spirit of the 18th-century satire The Beggar's Opera.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
