Professor Sir Ernst Gombrich, now 80, is the author of some 20 books, including his famous The Story of Art, but his curiosity ranges far beyond the confines of art history into music, history, literature, philosophy, perceptual psychology and science. Frank Whitford, Tutor in the Department of Cultural History, the Royal College of Art, presents a documentary appreciation of his achievement.
