Nova Sciencenow: How Smart Can We Get



Brain Power
This is good general information about the current state of brain research that the casually interested person would enjoy. A little more information as to where to go for more would have been nice.

Terrific DVD
My 5th and 6th grade math students loved this DVD. I highly recommend this DVD for children and adults. It is always fun to learn something new.

Excellent show on how the brain works
This was one of the best shows yet in NOVA's outstanding ScienceNow series. The show uses the amazing story of what happened to Einstein's brain as a vehicle to teach the viewer some fascinating things about the human brain. Host David Pogue makes the show work. He brings just the right blend of humor, good questions, and respect for the scientists he interviews. I also enjoy seeing him make the scientists laugh...how often do you see a scientist laugh? NOVA is to be congratulated. I can't remember another show that discussed scientific topics in such an interesting way. A 100% successful series.
