How have I never heard of her before? What a beautiful presence. I just finished listening and am immediately restarting the book

I listen to a lot of financial feminism content but this is on another level. Straight to favorites

Eine etwas andere Weltgeschichte, auch sehr gut gelesen vom "Narrator". Bill Gates wird aber komischerweise nicht erwähnt, wie der Titel es denken lässt

I enjoyed this book very much, in as far as you can enjoy hearing about the oppression of any group of people. As usual when i read about feminism I am upset, but hearing about the struggles and fights of our sisters from previous generations is always eye opening and relevant. I particularly enjoyed the chapter about the rriot girls. I was a child in the 90s so a lot of the topics covered helped me put stuff i vaguely remembered in context. Highly recommend listening to this. The author narrates her book very well too, which is always a treat

The summary sounded great, but I couldn't make it more than halfway through because of the horrible voice acting by the mother who is unfortunately one of the main characters. Her shrill screeching way of talking was absolute agony to my ears. I very rarely DNF audiobooks, especially such short ones, but that's how horrible this was to listen to

Great discussion of iconic authors about their experience writing scifi, publishing short stories, audio vs print etc

This is not nearly as outdated as some reviews would make believe. There is plenty about SpaceX, Virgin Galactic, Spaceport America etc. The chapters about sending astronauts to asteroids, the Moon and Mars were the most interesting to me. How interesting to hear from Dr Rendezvous himself about Apollo 11 too! A real treat

I liked this a lot. For being just an hour long, it is packed with useful info, tips and inspiration. It is a different method than Marie Kondo, but makes sense and gives great pointers as to how to decide about the maybe items, sentimental things, etc. Really good little course, thank you Sophie & the great courses!

Very interesting, but as others noted the first 7 lectures are dedicated solely to slavery in the sugar plantations. Only the last 3 lectures cover how sugar influenced society in the form of status symbol desserts, rituals, and health issues. Considering the title i expected more of the latter, but overall this was still a good listen, as usual with the Great Courses.
My only caveat is that she somehow makes the point that slavery before the plantations was not as bad... i think slaves would have begged to differ. Still worth your time to listen though!

Dorsey Armstrong kills it again! I have always been terrible at history but she makes it interesting, fun and understandable. Her narration is perfect. As a fellow professor I can only hope to make my lectures as good as these! This is one of my favorite short geat courses
