Most Helpful Review
Prof. Kristal is very knowledgeable of the material. However, the slides he show are mostly artwork. The majority of the information is spoken, and spoken quickly. So be prepared to constantly take notes. Also, although we studied 4 books in this class, we were not expected to read the books in their entirety. Discussion participation consisted of 20% of the grade so make sure you attend those.
