"Words alone cannot express the destructive horror being visited upon the Navaho and Hopi people at Black Mesa. Only a book like this can begin to impress upon people the nature of ecological destruction Iindians are suffering today. I am very happy that this story is finally being told the way it should be told- with photographs recordiing the systematic destruction of a land and people" Vine Deloria, Jr.

Program 1: The Path of Most Resistance
Running Time: 60 mins. Area of Focus: Physics

Excerpt:
The scientists in this program are all physicists. They study the movements of atoms, molecules, planets, and stars. They calculate the movements of these objects using advanced mathematics. They grew up in different places all over the United States, and they study their science all over the world. Most of them never saw a scientist who looked like them until they looked in the mirror. In this program, they tell you who they are and what kind of science they do.

Program 2: An Atmosphere of Change
Running Time: 60 mins. Area of Focus: Environmental Science

Excerpt:
The scientists in this program are working to answer many questions about the environment. From the ozone layer to the Arctic Circle, from San Fransisco in the West to the St. Lawrence River in the East, up to the highest level of the atmosphere, they are testing, exploring, and making discoveries.

Program 3: With Nerve and Muscle
Running Time: 60 mins. Area of Focus: Biology

Excerpt: The scientists in this program are very interested in nerves and muscles in humans and other creatures. From the Caribbean Sea to the Atlantic Ocean to laboratories and universities, their work involves science and fundraising, since scientific research requires money. All of them are trying to answer difficult questions about how living cells work.

Program 4: Engineering from the Inside Out
Running Time: 60 mins. Area of Focus: Engineering

The scientists in this program are all business people as well as successful scientists. As they develop new ways of testing ice, building engines, or using the telephone and television, they also must keep an eye on the bottom line.

Program 5: Science and the American Dream
Running Time: 60 mins. Area of Focus: Applied Science

The scientists in this program are all business people as well as successful scientists. As they develop new ways of testing ice, building engines, or using the telephone and television, they also must keep an eye on the bottom line.

Program 6: A Delicate Balance
Running Time: 60 mins. Area of Focus: Math/Computer Science

This program is about "making it" as a professor. One of the marks of success for professors is earning tenure. Tenure means job security at a university. It also means that a professor's peers have recognized that he or she has made an important contribution to the field. The scientists in this program face the pressures of working in a university setting while continuing their own research.
