  • This special DVD collection presents three of NOVA's most compelling documentaries on physics and physicists. Beginning with THE ELEGANT UNIVERSE, one of the most ambitious and exciting scientific theories ever posed--one that may be the long-sought "Theory of Everything"--gets a masterful and lavishly animated explanation that will excite scientists and nonscientists alike. Featuring simple and clear explanations of major concepts of physics--including gravity, electromagnetism, and relativity--THE ELEGANT UNIVERSE illuminates one of the most revolutionary theories in physics today: string theory. Join host Brian Greene, best-selling author and professor of physics and mathematics at Columbia University, for this exciting and in-depth exploration of this groundbreaking new theory. Then explore E=mc2--everyone's heard of it, but what does it really mean? With brilliant period recreations, EINSTEIN'S BIG IDEA dramatizes how an obscure young patent clerk, Albert Einstein, came up with his shattering 1905 discovery that the realms of matter and energy are inescapably linked. Starring Aidan McArdle (ELLA ENCHANTED) as Einstein, and Shirley Henderson (BRIDGET JONES'S DIARY) as Einstein's first wife, Mileva Maric. Finally, journey into the mind of a genius as EINSTEIN REVEALED presents a penetrating profile of the world's most renowned physicist, who contributed more than any other to our modern vision of physical reality. Andrew Sachs (FAWLTY TOWERS) stars as Albert Einstein.
