An interactive documentary Becoming Human, presented by paleoanthropologist Donald Johanson, traces the human lineage over four million years, while other resources include Chromosome Connection - an interactive chromosome comparison activity - and Building Bodies which looks at the origins of primate bipedalism.
Aimed at a wide audience - from schoolchildren to academics - the site also features teachers’ guidelines, book reviews, news, bibliographies and links to other websites.

A useful website on all aspects of Polish culture both contemporary and historical. Articles and reviews cover literature, film, music, visual arts and theatre. This piece on Polish Cinema of the Silent Era gives an overview of early film practitioners in Poland; another piece considers the mind-boggling difficulties and the human cost of translating Finnegans Wake into Polish, one of only ten languages to have its own version of Joyce’s magnum opus.

There are also links to online catalogues, archives and databases.

Another page, called Pinewood Dialogues offers interviews and discussions with creative figures in film, television, and digital media, including Jane Campion, Francis Ford Coppola, Thelma Schoonmaker, Terence Davies and David Cronenberg, to name just a few.

This site is no longer active, but Alan Goble’s guide now has a separate site The Complete Index to World Film since 1895.

The Missing Link is devoted to British and American horror films and aims to provide a comprehensive listing of all those made up to 1950, with slightly scantier information taking it into the 1960s. The site includes film and book reviews and more general articles on particular personalities or themes, which are well researched and surprisingly in-depth. It is possible to search by title and by personality and many of the reviews include both video and audio clips which can be viewed using RealPlayer.
