Civilization #1: Explaining Humanity's Transition to Agriculture

Who else been watching all his videos ????

This is the true modern day university/college experience available at the cost of mere internet access. I'd attend every lecture on time, and sit in the front row if I was actually given the pleasure of attending this professor's courses

From France, I am 23, I have paid 30 000EUR a business school where I didn't learn anything but trying to get drunk and smoke cigarettes, now I am reading more books than before, and all of my Youtube feed is full of politics, sociology, geopolitics, economics, philosophy, history... Now I found you, and you are a little bit of everything. Thanks for this free education, I binge watch all of your courses, I wish I could be one of your students, I could pay to be at your school. I cannot believe that your courses are for high school students, I thought it was for people at university, quality of your courses are insane and your students are super intelligent and open minded. Every teacher should that. What you do is political and I love it, free and accessible education for people no matter their ethnicity or their age or their geographic position. You are a revolution. Thanks Professor.

Now that I have finished the Geo-strategy module, I'm starting the story of civilization playlist.

Chinese high school students getting lectures like this, IN A SECOND LANGUAGE! Imagine getting this sort of lecture in Chinese in a UK or US secondary school. It’s no wonder they are becoming a world superpower - education is key.

I have came from US-IRAN video, who else??

Prof teaches WHY and HOW about civilisation whereas other teachers only teach WHO and WHEN

I’m 65, have a PhD, and I’m going back to college! I’ve always loved history. This is so exhilarating for me.

It just feels like everyone is lying when they explain something as fact, when he explains something as a framework and tests it to prove a fact, that captures my attention, its as if he truly wants us to criticize what hes teaching rather than blindly accept it. Thats how you know you are really learning.

The driver of human being development has always been competing for survival. Whoever can do better in securing sufficient food, defending its community from attacking by other communities, etc.
