Our entire advancement and civilization are the product of inventions/discoveries of thousands of known and unknown "Giants". From the invention of 'FIRST TOOL MAKING' ( from bones of animals > stones >Irons) to control of FIRES! From the DOMESTICATION of animals to Invention of AGRICULTURE! From the invention of STEAM ENGINE to conquer of SPACE and OCEANS! From the understanding and control of ELECTRICITY, MAGNETISM, ATOMS and SUB-ATOMIC particles - all, everything! Today, all aspect of our life are dependent on the oceans of scientific inventions/discoveries of those 'Giants'! They were/are extra ordinary people!
We are all standing on their shoulders, we owe to them!

Episode 1 : Spark: "Episode one tells the story of the very first 'natural philosophers' who started to unlock the mysteries of electricity. This is the story about what happened when the first real concerted effort was made to understand electricity; how we learned to create and store it, before finally creating something that enabled us to make it at will - the battery."
Episode 2 : -The Age of Invention : "Just under 200 years ago scientists discovered something profound, that electricity is connected to another of nature's most fundamental forces - magnetism. In the second episode, Jim discovers how harnessing the link between magnetism and electricity would completely transform the world, allowing us to generate a seemingly limitless amount of electric power which we could utilize to drive machines, communicate across continents and light our homes."
Episode 3 : Revelations and Revolutions: "Electricity is not just something that creates heat and light, it connects the world through networks and broadcasting. After centuries of man's experiments with electricity, the final episode tells the story of how a new age of real understanding dawned - how we discovered electric fields and electromagnetic waves. Today we can hardly imagine life without electricity - it defines our era."
