How Earth Made Us
On BBC Two
An intellectually engaging geological history that frames human civilization as shaped by natural forces, delivered with the measured authority and visual beauty of a nature documentary.
In each episode, geologist Iain Stewart describes how a certain geological force played a determinant part in human history. Culture may render people less dependent on nature, it still interacts with it, and actually increases the importance of such natural resources as minerals and fossil fuels.
