  This man is a gift. Truly in the tradition of Feynman. A world-class elucidator of high science.

  I came for the physics, I keep coming back to overcome my insomnia

  I think Sean Carroll is such an articulate and brilliant man. If I had  half this man's brain, he'd certainly want it back.

  Sean says that he never gets tired of being amazed at the human imagination and at Nature&apos;s stubborn insistence on following its rules of physics. But I will never get tired of listening to Sean describe how this universe works. His enthusiasm, his clarity, and his stubborn insistence on giving a fair hearing to all sides of controversies in physics is joyful to behold. Sean refuses to remain stuck in the mud of mysteries, but instead lays out the directions we can go and patiently awaits the march of science to determine the best direction.<br>He reminds me of the &quot;color commentator&quot; at NFL football games. He doesn&apos;t just give &quot;nuts and bolts&quot; statistics of how many yards were gained. He tells stories of the players on and off the field and how that relates to their performance in the game. We humans may understand math, but we also understand through a good story. Sean is the master color commentator, telling stories that help us appreciate the &quot;action on the field&quot;.

  Not an &quot;um&quot; or an &quot;ah&quot;. But a continuous unbroken flow of rational, logical information. What a pleasure to listen to. A lecturer of the highest order. Bravo!

  I’m 28 years old. I’m not a student of any kind. I attended a few semesters of community college. My job has NOTHING to do with quantum mechanics, academia, or particularly difficult concepts. I’m just someone that loves to learn. Knowledge is a gift. The more you learn about existence the more beautiful it reveals itself to be. Every academic field, every culture, even different beliefs systems, allow more of the universe’s richness to come through. Instead of chasing one truth, learn to see the many truths that people use to interpret the world. You have one too. <br><br>Thank you Sean Carroll for spreading knowledge in a concise and entertaining way. You’re a cool human.

  This really is as good as it gets. He knows the material and knows how to explain it.
