» The Hand of Darwin
SOF has worked with Cambridge University Library to present a narrated tour of Darwin's private notebooks and hand sketches with one of the few scholars who knows it best, David Kohn. You can zoom in tight on high-resolution images, listen to a scholar tell you more about why Darwin was writing the selected passages, and read the transcript of Darwin's cryptic handwriting!
» Unheard Cuts
This Web-exclusive audio features clips from the cutting room floor and live forums. Listen to a panel discussion moderated by Krista with various scientists. And, check out unreleased portions of Krista's conversation with James Moore and geneticist Lindon Eaves.
» Discussion Guide (PDF)
