Synopsis
Why do so many people believe so many daft things? Why do even 'sensible' people even touch wood, believe in angels and avoid walking under ladders? Professor Lewis Wolpert investigates the nature of belief and its causes. He looks at belief's psychological basis and its possible evolutionary origins in physical cause and effect.
