I really like the professor and his narration, quite engaging and interesting course. The only suggestion I have is to improve the quizzes with more analytical rather than fact-based questions.

This course covered the history of what is now the Middle East very well. I would recommend it to anyone who seeks a better understanding of the history and of the countries now so much a part of our current global society.

Great insight by a person that profoundly knows Middle East; I would sugget it both to those that need to do business with ME people, both to those that are willing simply to know a bit more about today's world.
Enjoy it!

I am grateful to have been able to take Professor Susser's course.
Also, I think he might have the sexiest voice in online education.
He's definitely the Barry White of Middle Eastern history.
Thanks, Prof!

I learned a ton in this course. I have a much more solid foundation for understanding religious differences, issues with national borders/geography, and conflicts between religious rule and secularism.

Lot of information and hundred of years of history in four weeks it is a great challenge. Only if participants interact more in the forum.
