  • 1Liz Garbus directed a new documentary that tells the story of chess champion Bobby Fischer. From a lonely childhood which saw Bobby obsessed with chess by the time he was six, he went on to beat Russian Boris Spassky in a fraught competition in Iceland, disappeared for a time, became a fugitive from US law, then re-emerged, seemingly in the grip of mental illness. It�s a fascinating story, brilliantly told in �Bobby Fischer Against the World�.

  • 1There are many life-saving medicines that cost just a few cents to manufacture but remain outside the reach of most of the world�s population. And then there are the diseases of the developing world for which drugs could relatively easily be developed but aren�t because there�s simply not enough money in it. Ideas talks to philosopher Thomas Pogge about an idea he says could radically change all that. Dr David Hadorn, tells Ideas about a proposal that he says has the potential to see New Zealanders at the front of the queue for innovative new drugs. And lecturer in health economics, Des O�Dea, discusses the pluses and minuses of the Pharmac model.
