James Burke takes a look at 2,000 years of human ingenuity. In the eighth of ten historical detective stories, he searches for the clues that link yesterday's amazing inventions to our modern-day world. This week he asks: 'What's the connection between Napoleon's chef and air-conditioning, or between the Munich Beer Festival and the Edwardian picnic - and how did that connection put a man on the moon?'
