Loved this class! The readings are fun, and the professor, Richard Myers, helps you to understand the concepts by relating them to current topics. He engaged the class by making the lessons into group discussions, which made it a better overall experience.

The course requires a lot of reading (4 books + readings on learn) which is the only real downside to the course. The evaluations come from 7 unit content questions + reflections (weekly) and a final essay so its relatively easy to get good grades. The prof also doesn't do powerpoint lectures, just goes over the unit's readings in class so a lot of people skipped.
