Movie: DARWIN'S DANGEROUS IDEA DVD

For 21 years, Charles Darwin kept his theory of evolution secret from all but a few friends. He confided to one: 'It is like confessing to a murder.' His torment resonates in society today -- in the challenge his incredibly powerful idea poses to our understanding of our world and ourselves. We interweave the drama in key moments of Darwin's life with documentary sequences of current research, linking past to present and introducing major concepts of evolutionary theory. It explores why Darwin's 'dangerous idea' matters perhaps even more today than it did in his own time, and how it conveys the power of science to explain the past and predict the future of life on earth.
