The Ascent of Man

on BBC Two England

A personal view by J. Bronowski in 13 programmes
3 : The Grain in the Stone
The origins of science lie in the hand of man. He splits a stone and reassembles the pieces to build a wall, a cathedral, a city.
In the Greek temples of Paestum and the cathedrals of medieval France, from the Inca cities of Peru to modern Los Angeles, the programme traces the story of man the architect and builder.
