Activity: Academic talk or presentation types › Invited talk

Description

Prof. Jonathan Wyatt's lecture will work between stories of watching John Wayne with his father, witnessing a stand-up performance, Like Father Like Son, by Scottish comic, Scott Gibson, and working with his counselling client, Karl, about his father-son relationships.
