Geoff Watts introduces an omnibus edition of the Moments of Genius which have aired throughout the past week on Radio 4, from the moment a Dutch draper stared at a drop of pond water to an experiment that put Einstein to the test.

Geoff and guests enjoy and discuss the choices of, among others, mathematician Marcus du Sautoy, writer Eoin Colfer, Professor Lord Winston, Carol Vorderman and comedian Ben Miller. They consider if scientists really do have moments of genius or if it is just a useful fiction, and what it takes to be a genius.
