Part one of our series introduces us to Alexander von Humboldt - one of the most influential scientists and thinkers of the 19th century - and the man known as the 'Father of Ecology'. In this episode, we cover Humboldt's early years, detailing how he grew into one of Europe's most innovative scientists. We finish up with Humboldt setting off to South America on a voyage of discovery that will cover five years.
