Solving the Mystery of Life on Earth
Darwin's Brave New World is a dramatized three-part documentary that tells the incredible and often harrowing story of how four young voyagers to the Southern Hemisphere changed our world forever. Charles Darwin, Joseph Hooker, Thomas Huxley and Alfred Wallace revolutionized science, gave birth to an extraordinary theory of evolution and turned society on its head. Long thought to be the lone genius, Darwin would need his armada to help formulate his theory, defend him from attack and win the battle against the Victorian religious and scientific establishments who considered his ideas sacrilegious, immoral and dangerous. Narrated by Dr. David Suzuki.
