Clinical veterinary anatomist at Cambridge University and science writer David Bainbridge dispels the myth of the mid-life crisis and celebrates the evolution of middle age as a distinctively human phenomenon, central to the success of our species.

Middle age is not about getting old but rather "the changes of middle age represent a developmental stage of life as distinct as infancy or adolescence," he says.

Four Thought is a series of talks which combine thought provoking ideas and engaging storytelling.
