Description
For 21 years, Charles Darwin kept his theory of evolution secret from all but a few friends. He confided to one,"It's like confessing to a murder." His torment resonates in society today -- in the challenge his incredible powerful idea poses to our understanding of our world and ourselves. Darwin's Dangerous Idea interweaves the drama in key moments of Darwin's life with documentary sequences of current research, linking past to present and introducing major concepts of evolutionary theory.
