Andrew contributed to the BBC series 'The Happiness Formula', has written over 200 articles for newspapers and magazines, and given about 1000 broadcast-media interviews around the world.

Famous quotes containing the word media:

    The media transforms the great silence of things into its opposite. Formerly constituting a secret, the real now talks constantly. News reports, information, statistics, and surveys are everywhere.
    Michel de Certeau (1925–1986)
