The Bigger Picture Special: Professor Tim Evans's best bits of 2019
Every fortnight, Simon Rose listens, rapt, to the insightful commentaries from Professor Tim Evans of Middlesex University. With Tim taking a well-earned break, for this Bigger Picture Special, Simon looked back through the year to find four of his favourite Tim-bits. The Professor discusses the way the Chinese state is inveigling its way into the business community, why the latest IMF Financial Stability Report is so important, what the future of office working might look like and, finally, confessed to a particular vice of his - a love of obituaries.
