Craig Venter - Life Decoded
The scientist, Craig Venter , is used to being a pioneer. He was one of the men who unravelled the mysteries of our genetic code.
Now he's written a truly 21st century autobiography - 'Life Decoded'. Philip Dodd asks him about this life, how it differs from the autobiographies of the past and what the future might hold in store.
Michael Moore
Philip will also be examining the work of another American, Michael Moore, whose new film is released this week.
'Sicko' has already caused controversy by taking a critical look at the American health care system. GP and Author Ben Goldacre is in the studio to review it.
