Listen multiple times
Transitions perfectly to podcasts format. It’s like a time when you think “Okay , now I get the whole picture.
Still Relevent
I did not (really) understand globalism, terrorism, the significance of Brexit, or globalism until I took this course. This lecturer is excellent at teaching, and has a balanced conceptual framework he sues to teach. Disapointed with your university education? Take this course.
Maybe Best Course on iTunes U
Interesting and engaging content. Great scaffolding of historical events lecture-by-lecture. Extremely knowledgable lecturer. Perfect duration (~50 min a lecture). Very clear audio. Give it until WWI content and YOU WILL BE HOOKED. This is my SECOND time to listen to it in 2 years.
