Professor Sala acts more like an entertainer than a teacher. Engaging lectures but little learning. He also quite political and promotes a pretty extreme view on neoliberalism.

Incredibly interesting AND entertaining. Most useful material I've learned in school. Midterm comically easy, final difficult but with heavy curve. Absolute must take!

The best lecturer I've ever had, and he has fantastic TAs that are extremely helpful. He is interesting, informative, and his tests are right out of his homework problems. Bless this man. And I agree with the previous post, take any class you can with him!
