Programme written and produced by Nesta Pain
Everybody would like to know the answer to the question. 'What is Man?' Many people can give you that answer from a purely specialist point of view. A surgeon can supply you with a catalogue of all the bones and organs that make up a man and tell you exactly what they look like. A chemist will startle you by the statement that you are sixty-six per cent water. And in the eyes of a physicist you practically disappear altogether, since the atom is as porous as the solar system.
But even when you have resolved man into his final particles, there still seems to be something missing - the thing that makes him a person, the thing that makes every man different from every other. For nobody has yet succeeded in isolating thought, feeling, or consciousness in matter. So you turn back to the whole man to find your answer. But even there the mystery remains, for he is a mass of contradictions. You can see him in love - and there are many kinds of love. You can see him as a creator or a destroyer, as a brute or a saint. He may be selfish and a grabber, or he may sacrifice his life for others.
This programme shows man from some of these different points of view, and in different moods and situations - dramatic, gay, exciting, and pathetic. But man still remains an enigma. (Nesta Pain)
