A great addition to "The Great Courses" presented by Professor Neil deGrasse Tyson

TV Series 2003 12 episodes I keep encountering Professor Neil deGrasse Tyson in various other presentations and books. I also own several "The Great Courses" with more on my "to buy" list. You will have to buy them used, as "The Great Courses" is not selling DVDs anymore. What makes this interesting is his presenting style. While other people make soundbite presentations, Professor Neil deGrasse Tyson makes continuous sense and seems to be the only person confident in what he is presenting. As I watch the presentation, I keep the Great Courses pamphlet to look up supplementary information as I go. I also keep a Physics Made Simple book for the few definitions not in the supplement. Even though the presentation is very fundamental, he assumes that you already have some basic knowledge of physics, as he is describing his favorite universe. The DVD version has two DVDs and a guidebook. The lecture is split up into four topics and twelve lectures. You will find this a fun way to pass the time and maybe pick up a little universal knowledge.
