Here's the class.

It just started.

The professor promises that at the end of the class we'll be able to understand every word of the FT and will be able to explain it to anyone in plain English.

So far I've listened to the first lecture and read the first reading (57 pgs written by a 1920s era monetary expert; even though they're free, these classes are no joke.) btw he says the environment today is closer in many ways to that of Bagehot in the 19thC than to that of Irving Fisher in the mid 20thC, and that's on the reading list too.

If anyone wants to take it, I'd love to have some company from someone on this board.

If you don't know what Coursera is, pls go to Coursera.org because the class offerings are amazing. There's also edx and venturelab out of Stanford.
