Since the beginning of time, man has wondered about the age of the earth and the variety of life on the earth. Using the Great Courses and lecture, we explore how our knowledge of the earth and evolution evolved over time. We also explore the development of the science of genetics and how this science has changed and could change our lives in the future. This is the first of three courses exploring life on the earth.
