The Extraordinary Making of You



Michael Mosely's, "Countdown to Life: The Extraordinary Making of You" is great.

100 trillion cells. 280 days. One human life.

The making of you

Your story didn’t begin when you were born.

Before you took your first breath, your appearance and much of your ‘instinctive’ behaviour had already been formed. Exactly how you spent the nine months developing from a microscopic cell to a human baby helped make you who you are today.

The website has an amazing slide show from conception through to birth. It also looks at nine things that shape your identity before birth.


The series was visually fabulous and informative.
