| | | Leading Edge brings you the latest news from the world of science. Geoff Watts celebrates discoveries as soon as they're being talked about - on the internet, in coffee rooms and bars; often before they're published in journals. And he gets to grips with not just the science, but with the controversies and conversation that surround it.

Mesopotamia is the cradle of civilisation, the region where modern society was born 10,000 years ago. It鈥檚 also where Baghdad is situated, and could soon be the focus of intense military activity. With up to 90,000 unexplored archaeological sites in Iraq, Geoff Watts talks to experts about the fragility of this precious record of early humanity, exemplified by ancient cities like Babylon, Ur and Nineveh.
