5/8. Collins. Before the late 1700s sailors couldn't fix their position at sea and had to sail close to land, increasing the risk of shipwreck. So when Greenville Collins's charts of Britain's coastline were published in 1693, hundreds of lives and ships were saved. Explorer Nicholas Crane navigates Cornish waters in a square-rigger of the period to reveal the extent of Collins's achievement.

Mobsters, detectives and glamorous locations populate the story of a game of cat and mouse between young scientists and the casinos of Las Vegas. A lecturer at America's Massachusetts Institute of Technology worked out that the odds in blackjack work differently to other games. He developed a system that tipped the odds and set off to Vegas with a bankroll from the Mob. But the casinos called science to their aid too.
Who was brighter: the MIT whizzkids or the detectives?
