Inside Intuition

What is intuition and when should we use it? Neuroscientist and sceptic Dr Mark Lythgoe probes these 'gut feelings'. From 2007.

"The only real, valuable, thing is intuition" was not the advice of an agony aunt or New Age guru, but Albert Einstein. But what is intuition and when should we use it?

Neuroscientist and intuition sceptic Dr Mark Lythgoe, tries to find out where these 'gut feelings' come from.

Mark's journey takes him to Bingham Farmer's Market, near Nottingham, for a jam tasting experiment and into a London wine bar, for an evening of speed dating.
