Learning how and when and by whom ideas were developed and discoveries made is critical to understanding them colossal edifice that is human knowledge, especially if you aspire to make a lasting contribution to building upon it. (This is part of the reason a good university degree includes a huge amount of reading.) The BBC?s In Our Time series is a great place to start dipping a toe into the history of science and philosophy, whether to expand your general knowledge or seek out interesting areas for further research.

BBC Radio 4: In Our Time

It?s available online and by podcast, so you no longer need to be in the UK to take advantage of Radio 4?s thoughtful but accessible programming.
