Focus
Focus, or Focus 580, was WILL Radio's flagship talk program from 1981 until 2014. David Inge was the host from 1981 until his retirement in 2012. Always engaging, the program acted as a resource for citizens to directly question politicians and candidates as well as keep up on the arts, science, health, and even the latest from well-known novelists.
The Focus archive below offers thousands of great interviews and serves as a time capsule and a great resource for researchers and those just curious about how influential people spoke of important topics as they were happening.
Lost History: The Enduring Legacy of Muslim Scientists, Thinkers and Artists
Guest: Michael Hamilton Morgan.
Today, relations between Islam and the West have been strained by mistrust and misunderstanding; yet there was a time when Muslim intellectual achievement was the envy of the world. Today on Focus we're joined by author Michael Hamilton Morgan to explore the ways that Muslim mathematicians, inventors, and astronomers helped set the stage for the European Renaissance, only to be drowned out and forgotten by their successors.
