This program examines the power of innovation to transform lives by spotlighting exciting new breakthroughs in science and technology. The program, hosted by author and Emmy-winning executive producer Helene Lerner, introduces three visionary engineers tackling the challenges of modern American life - from using robots to studying the effects of global warming, to employing nanotechnology in the treatment of cancer, to designing cutting-edge consumer products. The documentary also explores why the United States produces fewer scientists and engineers than other industrialized nations, and profiles a high school program striving to make math and science "cool" again.
