由 DS 提供May 4, 2020
Very, very insightful. Best course that I participated in. I simply loved it. And if you (the reader of this review) have any sort of curiosity regarding reasons of existence, this course is for you.
由 DH 提供Oct 20, 2018
I love everything about this. Plan to go back sometime later and explore more of the websites and links that are referenced. I especially enjoy material from the American Museum of Natural History.
由 CS 提供Jan 14, 2017
This course is a must. There is just no other course that can nurture your spiritual yearnings within the framework of science. Take it. It's a wonderful course.

I like how this coarse has some videos and some readings. I also like this coarse because it is not all videos and it is not all text. :) :) :) :) :)
