Fairly easy class. Grade is entirely made up of exam grades, but the tests themselves are not hard (the kind you spend less than a minute on speeding through questions). Extra credit is also offered, and all this just means that you won't have to stress about grades and won't have to do any busy work for the class. There will be questions on the exams that are based from the book and not lecture, but in my experience lecture knowledge can be enough to buffer those questions out and get a good grade.

Professor Frane is very fun and made lecture entertaining, and he's one of my favourite professors at this school. If you have a chance to take this or any other class with him, please do.
