A fresh look at world history!
A science story from history that's more interesting than fiction

Nothing in this world just happens.
Everything is connected, whether we see it or not.
We call the accumulation of these events 'history.'
History has gone through numerous turning points, and in the process, the current world map was created.
And even now, the world map is changing little by little, but in a direction no one expected.
A new world called 'science' exists in many of the amazing moments that changed world history.
By following scientific discoveries that combine human curiosity, desire, and focus, we can understand the flow of history.

《Naked World History: Science Edition》 is a collection of scientific events covered in tvN's best educational program, 《Naked World History》, with that intention.
It discusses a variety of topics, including the Earth we live on, human life, the Industrial Revolution, the era before humans, the evolution of living things, chemistry and physics, paleontology, geology, and environmental pollution, from a new perspective, crossing over world history and scientific knowledge.
From the hidden secrets of dinosaurs, the most powerful rulers on Earth, to the surprising truth about nuclear weapons, humanity's worst invention born from scientific advancement, this three-dimensional, science-based world history unfolds in a way that's more interesting than fiction.
In particular, due to time constraints, we have compiled in detail even the content that could not be shown on the broadcast, so you can see the scientific discoveries that have moved the world and the hidden aspects of science that we did not know about.

Humanity has continued to progress and develop, and science has always been present at these crucial moments in history.
Therefore, in order to understand history, we need to look into the world of science, which occupies a very large area even within the category of history.
How has science truly shaped history? The astonishing stories contained in "The Naked World: Science" compile nearly the entire history of science, etched into humanity and the world around them.
By following ten unique themes as landmarks, you will gain a deeper understanding of the grand history of life, the environment, war, medicine, and the crises of humanity, as well as gain profound knowledge and insight.
We hope you enjoy the new world hidden in the wondrous moment when science changed history.

From the secrets of dinosaurs discovered by science and technology
Even the father of the atomic bomb was accused of being a spy,
A collection of decisive events where science, humanity, and history met!

Dinosaurs were the largest terrestrial animals in Earth's history, and they ruled the planet for 160 million years.
But they suddenly disappeared from Earth 66 million years ago.
The study of dinosaurs, which have remained one of the most mysterious and secret creatures to mankind for thousands of years, reached its peak thanks to the battle of the century, known as the 'Bone Wars'.
What amazing secrets of dinosaurs have been revealed thanks to them?

In the approximately 4.6 billion years of Earth's history, the oldest living things are bacteria, the first life forms on Earth.
We live with the help of microorganisms, so much so that we cannot survive a single week without them.
However, bacteria have caused countless deadly infectious diseases throughout human history.
What germ caused a tragedy worse than war, and why did humanity have to live in fear of germs?

Eugenics is the study of dividing humans into classes and passing down only superior traits.
At one time, some countries tried to create superior species by artificially breeding the traits of species.
The surprising thing is that eugenics has its roots in biologist Charles Darwin's theory of evolution.
Why did Darwin's theory of evolution lead to such horrible mutations as eugenics?

In the 19th century, most death row inmates were hanged, meaning they were strangled.
This method took a long time to kill and was very painful, so after much deliberation, the United States decided on the electric chair, which electrocutes by sending a high-voltage current through it, as a new method of execution.
The person who influenced the completion of this system at that time was the inventor Thomas Edison.
The 'war of currents' and his despicable side are hidden behind the invention of the electric chair by the man who opened the electric age in America.
What is Edison's true identity?

The oceans on which we live produce far more oxygen than the Amazon rainforest.
And it has absorbed a quarter of the carbon produced by human activities.
However, the life in the ocean, which is responsible for the circulation of the entire Earth, is now running out. Approximately 87% of marine life will become extinct within 10 years, and concerns are becoming a reality that the collapse of the marine ecosystem could lead to the extinction of humanity.
Where is the ocean's death warning to humanity now sounding?

Marie Curie, who stood out as a unique scientist who changed the landscape of 20th-century science through her research on radioactivity, broke the record of being the "first" several times.
She pioneered paths no one had taken before, including becoming the first female Nobel laureate, the first Nobel laureate in two fields, and the first female professor at the Sorbonne in Paris.
What is even more surprising is that the Curie family received six Nobel Prizes, which is a rare feat for one person to receive. Marie Curie, her husband, daughter, and sons-in-law all received the prize.
What secrets lie hidden in the family of scientist Marie Curie?

From the surprising secrets of dinosaurs, once the most powerful rulers on Earth, to Oppenheimer, the father of the atomic bomb who went from being an American scientific hero to a spy who betrayed his country, 《Naked History of the World: Science》 delves into the fascinating history of science hidden in the defining moments that shook the world.
By filling in the blanks hidden in the backstories of science that shook the nation, alongside leading intellectuals from various fields, you'll realize that this world and the field of science weren't created overnight.
Moreover, we can cultivate the perspective and insight to read the future, not just by looking at the present through the mirror of the past.
