每一天的每一刻，我们都生活在一个由科学构建的世界里。但是，我们如何来到这里的？这个问题不仅仅是一个有着重大发现，天才思想或某个人跳出浴缸，大叫“我找到了！”的故事所能解答的。《科学的历史》为我们展示了历史上的政治动荡是如何与改变我们的生活。该剧每一集都从一个每个人都会问到的简单问题开始，然后对过去进行研究，发现人们的故事，并重新塑造出人们通过试验来发现答案的情景，并由此改变了这个世界。这部系列片将让我们了解从前科学家如何发现我们的构成，我们来自何处，以及地球出现之前的情景。

在这部纪录片里，大卫·马龙聚焦四位无与伦比的数学家：乔治·康托尔、路德维格・玻尔兹曼、哥德尔和阿兰·图灵。他们的天才光耀千古，他们的智慧深刻地影响了后世的我们。但是当同时代的人用尖刻的、猛烈的批评表达他们的反对意见时，它能产生一种悲剧性的结果，使他们精神错乱，最终都以自杀结束了自己的生命。 　　本片也与目前最著名的学者进行了对话。包括Greg Chaitin——纽约IBM TJ华生研究中心的数学家，以及罗杰·彭罗斯等人，他们仍在孜孜不倦地探寻世上到底是否有数学家不能弄明白的事。 　　《危险的知识》抓住了一些现实的深刻的问题，目前数学家仍在力图给出解答。请看一下下面的信息：这是一部完整的纪录片，只是因为技术原因才分为两部分。观看的时候要看完，而且请不要在看第一部分之前看第二部分。 　　1 of 2　上帝的信使 　　这部片子从乔治·康托尔开始讲起。他是一位伟大的数学家，创立的集合论已被尊为20世纪全部数学的基础。他认为自己是上帝的信使。因为他的老师利奥波德·克罗内克痛恨并敌视他以及他的理论，来自数学权威们的巨大精神压力终于摧垮了康托尔，结果康托尔精神失常，最终被疯狂所驱使，力图证明自己的无穷数理论。事实上，他的晚年是在精神病院度过的。 　　路德维格・玻尔兹曼力争证明原子和概率的存在，而奥斯特瓦尔德和马赫的强烈批评使他深感失望，导致了他最后的自杀。 　　2 of 2　谜团 　　哥德尔是爱因斯坦的一位性格内向的密友，一位智慧巨人。哥德尔定理粉碎了逻辑最终将使我们理解整个世界的梦想，同时也引发了许多富有挑战性的问题。他证明了形式数论（即算术逻辑）系统的「不完全性定理」：即使把初等数论形式化之后，在这个形式的演绎系统中也总可以找出一个合理的命题来，在该系统中既无法证明它为真，也无法证明它为假。哥德尔最终在一家疗养院绝食而死，因为他认为那些食物有毒。 　　阿兰·图灵，恩尼格玛密电码的破译者，计算机科学 “人工智能之父”，同性恋者。图灵为证明一些永远不能被证实的事情而死，外界的说法是服毒自杀，一代天才就这样走完了人生。（献给本文所有伟大而孤独的悲剧英灵。喵喵驴驴译，错误之处烦请各位达人指正，谢谢。部分资料来源于网络。） 　　In this one-off documentary, David Malone looks at four brilliant mathematicians - Georg Cantor, Ludwig Boltzmann, Kurt Gödel and Alan Turing - whose genius has profoundly affected us, but which tragically drove them insane and eventually led to them all committing suicide. 　　The film also talks to the latest in the line of thinkers who have continued to pursue the question of whether there are things that mathematics and the human mind cannot know. They include Greg Chaitin, mathematician at the IBM TJ Watson Research Center, New York, and Roger Penrose. 　　Dangerous Knowledge tackles some of the profound questions about the true nature of reality that mathematical thinkers are still trying to answer today. see notes below:1 documentary, only split for technical reasons. broadcast in 1, watch in 1, get both parts, don't start to watch pt2 before pt1. 　　1 of 2 God's messenger 　　The film begins with Georg Cantor, the great mathematician whose work proved to be the foundation for much of the 20th-century mathematics. He believed he was God's messenger and was eventually driven insane trying to prove his theories of infinity. 　　Ludwig Boltzmann's struggle to prove the existence of atoms and probability eventually drove him to suicide. 　　2 of 2 The Enigma 　　Kurt Gödel, the introverted confidant of Einstein, proved that there would always be problems which were outside human logic. His life ended in a sanatorium where he starved himself to death. 　　Finally, Alan Turing, the great Bletchley Park code breaker, father of computer science and homosexual, died trying to prove that some things are fundamentally unprovable. 　　转自VeryCD

物理学家Jim Al-Khalili游历叙利亚、伊朗、突尼斯、西班牙等国，向您展示8世纪-14世纪伊斯兰世界的巨大科学进步。共3集。 　　Information 　　Episode 1: The Language of Science. 　　Physicist Jim Al-Khalili travels through Syria, Iran, Tunisia and Spain to tell the story of the great leap in scientific knowledge that took place in the Islamic world between the 8th and 14th centuries. Its legacy is tangible, with terms like algebra, algorithm and alkali being Arabic in origin and at the very heart of modern science. For Baghdad-born Al-Khalili this is also a personal journey and he uncovers a diverse, outward-looking culture, fascinated by learning and obsessed with science. 　　Episode 2: The Empire of Reason. 　　Physicist Jim Al-Khalili travels through Syria, Iran, Tunisia and Spain to tell the story of the great leap in scientific knowledge that took place in the Islamic world between the 8th and 14th centuries. He travels to Syria to discover how, a thousand years ago, the astronomer and mathematician Al-Biruni estimated the size of the earth to within a few hundred miles of the correct figure. In Cairo, he tells the story of the physicist Ibn al-Haytham, who helped establish the science of optics. 　　Episode 3: The Power of Doubt. 　　Physicist Jim Al-Khalili concludes his investigation into the relationship between science and Islam. He shows how the scientific revolution that took place in 16th and 17th century Europe had its roots in the world of medieval Islam. He travels across Iran, Syria and Egypt to discover the astronomical advances made by Islamic scholars through their obsession with accurate measurement. He then visits Italy to see how those ideas permeated into the West and helped shape the works of Copernicus.

A microchip engineer explains something both familiar and unknown, but what exactly? His voice is soothing and distant in equal measure. As we go deeper inside a factory, the object is revealed: a smart contact lens. Though only a prototype for now, this lens corrects vision, displays a screen, and analyzes tears. Are we in Belgium, where the narrator is? Or Taiwan, where the factory is. In this fusion of prototype and place, what does it mean to create knowledge from tears? Or is knowledge ‘in tears’; grieving as it reproduces itself in a factory where the labor is half-automated and the end-user asleep.

Sleep has long been regarded as nothing more than a way to charge our batteries. But what if it can control our weight, allow us to make memories, and help us to fight off diseases like Alzheimer’s? We travel the world to investigate how revolutionary new technology has revealed the sleeping brain as an energetic and purposeful machine.
