Description
Content description from Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_The_Nature_of_Things_episodes ):
The Nature of Things (also, The Nature of Things with David Suzuki) is a Canadian television series of documentary programs. It debuted on CBC Television on 6 November 1960. Many of the programs document nature and the effect that humans have on it, although the program's overall scope includes documentaries on any aspect of science. The program "was one of the first mainstream programs to present scientific evidence on a number of environmental issues, including nuclear power and genetic engineering". The series is named after an epic poem by Roman philosopher Lucretius: "De rerum natura"—On the Nature of Things.
Muscle Fibre: An examination of the mechanics of muscle contraction, looking at the roles of slow and fast types of muscle fibres.
How Fish Swim: An examination of the biomechanics of fish locomotion, looking at the physical differences between different types of fish.
Ephemera: Text saved from original ephemera. Small clipping from program guide. "9:00 The Nature of Things. "Muscle Fibers/How Fish Swim" -- A look at the role of different muscle fibers and how the design of fish aids their lifestyle." Handwritten: "1/16/86."
