Such an amazing course! It requires a lot of focus and measured progress over 14 weeks, but is totally worth it. I have come out of it a better thinker and more well-informed than I have ever been.

Excellent course. I learned a lot, enjoyed the experience. Prof. Zelnikov is a master teacher. Thanks for the opportunity to listen and learn even after eight years after production of these lectures.

Mostly very good. However, the Prof's bias toward the administrations he worked for showed through a little. And the global situation has changed so drastically since 2014 with Trump 1 and Trump 2 that the last couple modules seem very naive -- partly a hazard of teaching "history" when it isn't yet history -- but it might be worth updating to correct/acknowledge .... 2014 was a long time ago world history wise.

An ambitious and informative summary of the most relevant events that shaped our history over the past 100 years. This takes us from the early 20th century up to the financial crisis of 2008. Highly recommend this course if you are wanting to refresh your understanding of this time period.

I enjoyed listening to Prof. Zelikow's lectures. This course has shown me a historians perspective on events of past and present. It is empowering to see how much humanity has achieved in such a short time and how many mistakes were done during the process.

Excellent thought provoking material. If slides were left on screen for longer, it would be easier to absorb the concept and take notes.

Excellent course but it could be updated or completed to analyze events from 2013 to at least 2019.

Well presented with reasoned arguments, some of the slides needed to be clearer especially the maps
