About the Course

What are people most afraid of? What do our dreams mean? Are we natural-born racists? What makes us happy? What are the causes and cures of mental illness?

Very kind and wise and humble words combined with a warm and tender voice ! The content could include more details. I also enjoyed Professor Bloom's avatar and his changing cloths and other cartoons.
