Phenomenal.

Very interesting! Scholarly lessons presented in a fluid candid manner that's very stimulating.

Very good course on modern history. Explains a lot how we went from the traditional world to the modern

Really interesting

wonderfull and very interesting course. Thanks you so much. Francois

excellent

My favourite course. Philip Zelikow is the best!

good comparative study

Despite a bit confusing use of info-screen, this really opened my mind and view to the rest of the world. It´s if he made me see world history + our present world in a whole new light. Thank you so much :)

Great overview of this period in history. Professor makes it interesting without overwhelming. I definitely recommend.

Appropriate for everyone, amazing course !!

I have learnt a great deal in this course. A vast amount of history is covered in a logical and thematic manner. The professor's style is relaxing and warm. He is also well organised and lucid and because of this my learning was enhanced. This is a great course for those, like me, who are new to the history of these events.

I actually took the pair of courses in backwards order and as I was finishing Part one (after part II) I was ready to go and do Part II again.

Really enjoyed these to courses very much. Enough detail but also broad enough to cover many things that were happening in the world.

Highly recommended as a course to get an overview on what was happening in the 2 plus centuries this course covers.

Great course I loved it with its all parts

love it！ very illustrative and comprehensible!

Simply great

Amazing!! Thank you so much, I have learned a lot

Great Course! Shows the political evolution from a Feudal System until we have a Modern World that starts changing very fast through scientific knowledge, and the struggle from imperialism to democratic societies, to dictatorships, military goverments.

Big thanks to prof. Zelikow and University of Virginia for making history so interesting, and this course a joy to watch. I feel like I got a new perspective of today's world and the processes that will shape our future.

I recommend the course to people of all professional backgrounds and interests, even those who never liked history in their student days.

Such an informative course, and it linked together different regions & events; that's something only top-level sources of education does. I will no doubt continue on with the course to Part 2.

Great course. Professor Zelikow takes the entire world and gives us a clear and sometimes surprising story of the modern world. Amazing. So glad I took this course.

erudition big picture connecting 'civilizations'

Perhaps the reason why I really like this course is that I am very excited about learning world history. But the course content and the way professor delivers lectures is amazing.

Great course. I really enjoyed it

excellent professor well presented
