Seven programmes on the beginnings of a human life and the early acquisition of immunity to disease.

The dream of surgeons to transplant organs from one individual to another is frustrated by the inevitable destruction of the grafted tissue. The programme shows how scientists and doctors are attempting to overcome this reaction.
In the programme are: Dr. Leslie Brent, Professor P. B. Medawar C.B.E., F.R.S., Dr. Guy Vourch, Professor M. F. A. Woodruff.
