Iain McGilchrist is a psychiatrist, writer, literary scholar and philosopher. His new book, The Matter with Things takes over from his previous book The Master and His Emissary, examining some of the most fundamental questions of human existence. We discuss The Matter with Things as well as the topic of longing as an entry point for personal growth.
