Most people get one of two things from iTunes – music or apps. Despite the amazing expanse of knowledge on offer for free – getting downloads from iTunesU is not so nearly popular.
But the iPhonegizmo team think this is an amazing resource and we want to bring it to our readers attention. For example, there are lectures on a very wide range of topics – from the truly brainy stuff that few of us will ever understand (quantum mechanics and the lectures from real mathematical brainiacs, a-la-Numb3rs ).
But there is also a heap of information on really useful and/or interesting topics.
Take for example the whole issue of sex and smells. Did you know that less than10 years ago some scientist were still categorically denying that humans could be affected by pheromones (ie smells)? And now? Well, you would not believe what the researchers are saying about how important these smells are to sex, performance, mate choice, faithfulness etc! Well, in iTunes you can get the latest info on this hot topic in the free lectures for download by Catherine Dulac from Harvard University (latest update was June 29 2010). And if that talk excites you – you really should check out this book on the subject.
