Modern Biology: An Introduction
Part 1. A Brief History of Biology
Takes the viewer on a brief tour of the history of biology's development as a science. Includes the 19th century revolution when Koch and Pasteur discovered germ disease and Charles Darwin developed the theory of evolution, as well as advances in genetics and ecology in the 20th century.
Part 2. Working Biologists Today
Viewers meet nine world-class biologists who describe their work and explain its relevance to 21st century science and society.

The Gene
Part 1. How Genes Were Discovered.
Dramatizes the history of genetic discovery from Mendel in his monastery garden to Watson and Crick at the Cavandish Laboratory.
Part 2. What is a Gene?
Outlines the basic picture we have tody of what a gene is and how it works. This updated version includes new material on cloning and the human genome project.
In The Gene, keys to scientific literacy include: cytosine, differentiation, DND, double helix, enzymes, gene gun, genetics, genome project, guanine, meiosis, mitosis.

Evolution
Three basic video programs are combined in one DVD to help students to a better understanding of evolution theory and practice today.
1. Charles Darwin explains the Diversity of Life
Come with us to Charles Darwin's home in Down, England, to a South American rainforest and to the Galapagos Islands to learn how Darwin laid the foundation for modern biology with the revolutionary theory of evolution by natural selection.
2. The Story of Evolution
Shows how life has changed through the ages and how the modern theory of evolution by natural selection accounts for these changes. Includes new work on dinosaur extinction.
3. Origin of Species: Creationism and Evolution
When Charles Darwin visited the Amazonian rainforest and the Galapagos Islands in 1835 he, as well as most of the scientific community of his day, believed in creationism. Come with us to these same sites today to see why he and scientists following him adandoned this theory and replaced it with the theory by natural selection.
Length: 72 minutes. © 2002. DVD. Year 9 - Adult.
