Customer Reviews
Excellent podcast!
As a grad student in political science i can comfortably say that this is one of the best political thought classes i have heard! Not only does he effectively summarize the most crucial parts of each philosopher's thoughts, he also does a very good job in relating those ideas to contemporary political issues. İ wish there were more podcasts of his courses.
Perfect
Not only is his subject matter relevant, engrossing, and well organized, but his voice is a pleasure to listen to and his skill as a lecturer is superb. Love it.
Excellent!
This is a fantastic course, both relevant and current. The sound quality is also very good.
