Thanks to all of you who responded to our prior email about online courses.

These are courses I have given for ten years at UCLA Osher Institute, and for several years before that at CSUCI Osher Institute. We will follow the same format, but now online using the ZOOM app, which you, as a course attendee, can use for free.

Those who enroll will be billed via PayPal, and will be provided the necessary ZOOM access information.

To meet as many of your scheduling needs as possible, we will start with two courses on different days and times.

All my courses assume no prior physics or math expertise — I will explain everything you need to know. Just let us know which (or both) courses you wish to enroll in.

Course: Einstein For Everyone

When: 10am to noon; Tuesday April 7, 14, 21, 28 and May 5, 12

Cost: $40

Optional Book: Everyone’s Guide to Atoms, Einstein, and the Universe

This book is available for purchase here; please allow 7 days for delivery in the U.S. only.

Course: Our Universe, The Known & The Unknown

Optional Book: Our Universe, The Known & The Unknown

These optional books match the courses, providing additional and more in-depth material. Some people learn best by listening, some by reading, and some prefer both — it’s your choice.

The following are course descriptions:

Einstein for Everyone

Course Description: How did a young rebel who seemed doomed to fail become the world's most famous scientist? What do his theories really mean? How do his discoveries impact our lives? This course provides an entertaining introduction to Einstein for everyone, even those who fear physics or are allergic to math.

Our Universe, The Known and The Unknown

Course Description: A scientific theory of the universe began to emerge about 100 years ago; it remains a work-in-progress. We explore many fascinating facts about our universe--its size, its age, what it contains, and of what it is made. What is expanding and what isn't, and what "Big Bang" and "expansion" really mean. Where did our universe come from? What is its future and how do we fit in?

No prior scientific expertise required.
