Today, perhaps, the word "genius" is over-used, but it does describe perfectly the men who are featured in this enthralling series. Sometimes their ideas and theories were so radical, they were considered dangerous or subversive by the rulers of their day.

Charles Darwin
Featuring specially-commissioned footage shot at Down House, the home of Charles Darwin, this fascinating DVD tells the story of an extraordinary man who re-shaped scientific thinking and left the world an invaluable legacy. The program explores Darwin's personal life, looks at the impact of his work in his own time and on the modern world, and shows how both his life and work were profoundly influenced by his surroundings.

Leonardo Da Vinci
The story of the brilliant Italian artist, sculptor, architect and engineer is told in this informative program. Leonardo's legacy to the world came in so many forms; in the breathtaking beauty of The Last Supper and The Mona Lisa; his rich collection of drawing; the mirror-written notebooks containing original thoughts on astronomy, biology and physiology.

Galileo
This is the story of the brilliant Italian astronomer and mathematician who dared to challenge the accepted teachings of his day. Galileo's work brought him to the attention of the Inquisition and one of history's greatest minds was forced to work his last years under house arrest. Featuring specially-filmed dramatized depictions and rare contemporary images, this program vividly recreates Galileo's life and work. It also includes expert commentary and analyses by eminent historians.
