About

The 20th century was a golden age that changed the course of the world rapidly, irreversibly and dramatically. The rapid technological progress of the century was built on science, exploration and other creative possibilities -- and heavily influenced by two world wars. It was based upon the actions of individuals and what they created, what they discovered and even what they destroyed. This documentary series takes a look into the 101 people who were most responsible for shaping the world and how the people view it today.
