In this episode of Deep Dives, Jacob Reynolds talks to Frank Füredi about his latest book "The War Against the Past".His book aims to shed light on the systematic attempt to delegitimise the ideals and accomplishments of Western civilisation.

Dismantling the wisdom our historical inheritance provides means betraying humanity’s positive achievements. Challenging this great betrayal, Professor Füredi argues, is one of the most important battles of our time.
