Summary: This first program in the series demonstrates how one image, among all others, dominates our contemporary world: the human body. We travel from the modern world of advertising to the temples of classical Greece and the tombs of ancient Egypt to solve the mystery of why humans surround themselves with images of the body, images that are startlingly unrealistic.
