In the Ethics of Being Old, Dr Tim Dean is joined by a very special guest to explore:

  • what it means to age

  • how growing old brings both wisdom and frailty

  • how ageing affects our identity and sense of meaning

  • who should bear the responsibility for caring for those who increasingly struggle to care for themselves

whether we can make peace with the brute facts of death and dying.
