The Story of Science: Power, Proof and Passion

Dorian Greenbaum was interviewed for this program, and hopefully they will have included comments about how Kepler really was a practicing astrologer, who didn't just "do it for the money" but used astrology to judge upon his own private concerns and deeply personal issues too.

From which I quote:

"Michael Mosley embarks on an informative and ambitious journey exploring how the evolution of scientific understanding is intimately interwoven with society's historical path.
... He reveals the critical role of medieval astrologers in changing our view of the heavens, and the surprising connections to the upheavals of the Renaissance,..."

I spoke to some of the researchers myself, and believe that they intended to offer a fair and balanced representation of the role of astrologer in history (finger's crossed!).
