Best course and professor I have taken at Coursera, since Demystifying Mindfulness (which is #1).Really liked Prof Roth, and appreciate his continued emails after the course via Mentor connections.

Excellent but perhaps too many books to read! Reading three or four novels is unrealistic for such a course.

How the papers to get a grade is confusing, but I figured it out. Please clarify instructions.
