I loved this professor. The way he used the concept of otherness brought in a bunch of material on sections of the population often overlooked in traditional western civilization courses. Also, within the first few lectures, he used Star Wars, Star Trek, and the Matrix to make analogies - my kind of teacher! Some reviewers complained about his speaking style, but I got used to it very quickly and indeed began to appreciate his tangents. This class will give you a lot of (sometimes scary) insights into why westerners think the way we do even today. You&#39;ll be thinking about these lectures long after they are finished.

Great material often overlooked

Was super dooper excited to do this course but couldn&#39;t go through with it... Content seems indeed spectacular but the recording quality is low and with the erratic speaker voice it becomes agony to listen to. Please redo! I acknowledge that the professor might not give the most smooth dulcet tone but perhaps a video would help marry the mumbling to a moving picture to get a better sense.

Bad recording
