The Scientist behind Modern Britain

Episode 19 - Stapledon and the Depression. A look at the urban-centric ideas about the Landscape emerging during hte agricultural depression in the 1930s and 30s. John Boys Orr and Christopher Addison saw nutrition as a problem, and the eyesores and inefficiencies of suburbia led J B Preistley to push for more central planning.
