usual perception of the past and illuminate the present. This week:
"Dutch Masters’ Religion". The ‘School of the Dutch Masters’ which
includes painters like Vermeer, Rembrandt, and Hals, reveals a
prosperous, largely Protestant, society in the 17th century where
industry and self-reliance are the hallmarks of faith. The uniquely
tolerant religious society of the Netherlands is one of the features of
a new art exhibition at the National Gallery of Victoria. We hear from
the Director, Gerard Vaughan. [T;%]

of subjects from the domestic "Breakfast" program.

Mental
Illness Amongst Young Australians". Increasing young people’s knowledge
of mental health issues may have the beneficial result of them seeking

2004: A
Short History of Progress: Rebellion of the Tools". Rebellion of the
Tools, is the title of Ronald Wright's final lecture, with the
acceleration of material change, civilization becomes conscious of
progress and therefore self-conscious. Nineteenth-century writers begin
to see the threat in the machine. Twentieth-century events bear out
their fears. Now, despite ethnic and political fault-lines, one big
civilization covers the Earth. For the first time in history, all our
10,000-year bets rest on a single throw. [T;%]
Tue.: SCIENCE SHOW - with Robyn Williams. This week: "The Story of
Biotechnology". The Science Show, presented by Robyn Williams, is 30
years old next month and to celebrate we’ve been exploring the
archives. We take a look at one of today’s fastest growing industries,
biotechnology, to find out where it comes from and how it is changing
our world. It’s a story full of intrigue, brilliant innovation, panic
and protest – and more than a touch of déjà vu! [T;%]

Thu.: BACKGROUND BRIEFING - Radio National's agenda-setting, current
affairs radio documentary program. This week: "Lula's Brazil". There
