See below for details.\\nHealthy disagreement used to be a sign of a well functioning society. But today, many democracies across the world are suffering a crisis of faith in the values of debate and a trend of refusing to engage with those who do not share the same views. Journalist, political analyst, and best-selling author Anand Giridharadas explores these ideas in his new book The Persuaders: Winning Hearts and Minds in a Divided Age. In this episode, in conversation with oceanographer and television presenter, Helen Czerski, he discusses how we've ended up here and the best ways to move forward.\\n\\u2026\\nWe are incredibly grateful for your support.
