Lessons from Nature

For a while I have been working on a television treatment which brings lessons from the animal kingdom to bear on human issues - on monogamy, cooperation, punishment and many other areas. But now Terry Tom Brown has beaten me to that feat - making this connection in the media - with his brilliant column in the Observer magazine. I guess if you can't beat them join them, so I am planning to approach him to work on a proposal for a Radio 4 series - 'Lessons from Nature'? - or perhaps even a new Sunday morning natural history production. There's a lot of scope for 'mind and spirit' programming for atheists - we're not robots you know! (well not simple ones).
