...Christian Revolution” is well regarded (but not taught this year). Dumbarton Oaks Professor of Byzantine History Angeliki E. Laiou will lecture on the Crusades in B-11. Guessing the Greek-bred Laiou’s least-favorite Crusade should be easy (hint: it’s probably the Fourth!).Early modern history offers the Historical Studies-B student a renaissance and a reformation, though neither is being offered this year. Among the most popular courses from this period is B-19, “The Renaissance in Florence.” Taught by mustachioed oenophile and Renaissance intellectual...
...Policy,” covers a broad smattering of small things—from microwaves to atomic particles to stem cells. You’ll talk about the Alice-in-Wonderland-esque counter-intuitive nature of these super-small things (groovy!) and get to know the world of nano (hint: it’s not about the iPod). If you prefer the bigger picture, Science A-36, “Observing the Sun and Stars,” has some promise, but be prepared to put in the hours, as two labs a week—limited to 6 students?...

It won't stop the killing - the A.U. soldiers are ill-equipped and backed by the weakest of mandates - but it creates another few months in which the world can dither. Amid the diplomatic...
...many chief executives would even hint that they aren't up to the job. But Bill Ford never appeared all that comfortable running his namesake company. An avowed environmentalist, he tried unsuccessfully to turn Ford into a green car leader and was forced to backtrack as the company's finances fizzled. In Detroit, the buzz is that he's too nice a guy, unwilling to impose draconian job cuts at the risk of angering the UAW. In an interview last winter with TIME, he acknowledged that he found the CEO's role confining at times. And it has been clear...
