Very accessible introduction to complex concepts

The lecturer also has a charming voice and she can be funny.

Clear, concise, interesting.

This is the second series I have listened to by Marriane Talbot.
She is very easy to listen to and simplifies concepts without compromising on content.
Uses practical examples for virtually all abstract concepts explained.
Highly recommended!
