446: Why you don't have free will, and that's OK - with Prof George Paxinos

Professor George Paxinos, AO is a leading global neuroscientist who studied at Berkeley, McGill in Canada and Yale and is Professor of Medical Sciences at NeuRA and the University of New South Wales, Sydney.

George has mapped more parts of the brain than anyone in history.

He has a remarkable understanding of how we as humans react to our environment - and indeed how in altering our environment we have changed not only our planet but also our ability to choose a different path. To explore this concept - after a career of publishing some of the most successful and referenced scientific books of all time, George has written his first novel.

A River Divided explores the not-too-much-of-a-stretch scenario where a geneticist clones Christ, twice.
