Uber hitch a ride out of Denmark
A big legal defeat has driven Uber out of Denmark. A new law requires all taxis to have expensive seat sensors, meters, and video surveillance, meaning Uber is an "illegal taxi service" and not a "ride sharing app" as it claims. The ride-hailing company says it's closing it's business from mid-April. Matt Cox spoke to Paul Henty, Partner and competition law expert at law firm Charles Russell-Speechlys.

How slashing £128m from 'low priority' NHS prescriptions will impact the pharmacy industry
The pharmacy industry is trying to assess the likely impact of a £128 million government move to stop GPs writing prescriptions for 'low-priority' items. You could soon be stopped from getting travel jabs, gluten-free foods and omega-3 supplements on the NHS. You may have heard it confirmed yesterday that 10 treatments are involved in the first round of the shake-up by NHS England chief executive Simon Stevens. What difference will this make? Galen Rosenberg, owner of the Maple Leaf Pharmacy spoke to Nigel Cassidy to discuss this further.

Book Review: The Knowledge Illusion: Why We Never Think Alone
When Socrates said 'the only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing', it's safe to say the Greek philosopher probably wasn't contemplating how flush lavatories function. But today's book argues that from the particulars of porcelain plumbing all the way up to the complexities of our political and economic systems, we all know a great deal less than we think we do. Simon speaks to Professor Steven Sloman, a cognitive scientist at Brown University and co-author of today's book.
