Comment:
The above is true but he doesn't dwell on slides all the time. He expected us to read the book so that he could explain only selected parts in details, marely mentioning the rest. If you read the book you will enjoy this class cos he touches on very interesting points, if you don't usually read you may feel a bit lost.

This guy definitely teaches from the slides like the above poster says. No prepation at all for class. Had his wife come in, she was useful! He assigns homeworks from the book, but doesn't even bother changing anything around.

Not that great a teacher, he teaches by reading slides that come with the book. Not very organized.
