Welcome to Intelligence Squared, where great minds meet.
I'm head of programming, Connor Boyle.
On the podcast today we're hearing from Roland Allen, a publisher and author whose most recent publication is a history of what we might consider to be a very everyday, even humble object.
The notebook.
Except its not just that, is it?
Over hundreds of years, a notebook is the place where so many other good ideas have been jotted down, scribbled out and refined, perhaps to eventually escape its pages and grow out into the real world.
Joining Roland to talk about it is Albert Reid, writer, author and magazine publishing head.
He is the author of his own book on the power of the imagination muscle.
Lets join Albert now with more.
Roland, welcome to this podcast and thank you for being here.
