Book of the Week is a BBC Radio 4 series that is broadcast daily on week days. Each week, extracts from the selected book, usually a non-fiction work, are read over five episodes; each fifteen-minute episode is broadcast in the morning (9:45am) and repeated overnight (12:30am). The Act of Worship replaces the morning broadcast in the schedule on longwave.
