Topics covered may vary and may include energy and conservation, radioactivity, nuclear physics, the Theory of Relativity, lasers, explosions, earthquakes, superconductors, and quantum physics.
Class Description
Everything flows.
Presidents of the US, of companies, boards, or NGOs must adapt to a world where ever-emerging technologies are simultaneously a wellspring, a danger, or perhaps key to a rescue mission.
This course will explain the physics. As president, you will have to make--and explain--the decisions . . . .
