VHS : Great Minds of Science 6 Tape Boxed Set
Off The Bookshelf's Price: $123.75
Prices subject to change.

Used Price: $9.00

This set includes six videos, each featuring a one-hour interview with a leading scientist. I found the interview format extremely refreshing versus the "infotainment" style science shows on TV today. You won't get flashy graphics or commercial-break cliff-hangers. What you do get is a solid hour of good conversation with six thought leaders in fascinating fields of study that are as relevant today as they were ten years ago. Topics include oceanography, astronomy, evolution, dinosaurs, viruses, and artificial intelligence. I learned something from every installment, and came away inspired by the breadth of human intellect and excited by what is yet to be discovered in our world.

VHS : Great Minds of Science: Artificial Intelligence
Computers today are faster and capable of processing more data than ever before, but they are rarely able to learn, to think like human beings. No researcher has spent more time struggling with this problem than Dr. Marvin Minsky, Toshiba Professor of Media and Arts at MIT. This video is a must for anyone interested in Artificial Intelligence. I have seen the video 100+ times.

VHS : Great Minds of Science: Evolution
In this volume of the "Great Minds of Science" series, we are introduced to the ideas and eccentric personality of Dr. Jared Diamond (Professor of Physiology at the UCLA School of Medicine and Pulitzer Prize-winning author of "Guns, Germs, and Steel," and "The Third Chimpanzee," among other works).

The film opens with a brief introduction to Darwinism, a recapitulation of the evidence for human evolution, and then works its way towards the essence of the film: the interview. Framing the discussion, we are asked: "What does it really mean to be human? What's unique about our species? What turned us from a dim-witted ape-man to the glorious thinking animal we are today?
