Gr 7 Up–So, why is there still a big fuss being made over Charles Darwin's
19th-century theory? Other than the perennial religious argument, what impact
does that have on contemporary issues? This wonderfully effective program
addresses just those topics in a clear and concise manner. Viewers learn how
evolution affects research in areas such as medicine and pharmaceuticals,
agriculture's pursuit of better pesticides and increasing product yields and
disease resistance, conservation efforts intended to assist endangered plant
and animal species, and more. Although the narration and commentary by significant
biologists and other scientists is rather prosaic, their messages are not.
One commentator pretty much sums up the importance of Origin of Species by
saying that with evolution, biology simply “makes sense.” With
this program, evolution itself “makes sense.” Sure to become a
favorite of classroom teachers as well as a valuable addition to media collections.–
