I absolutely adored Professor Clayton. He's funny, helpful, and friendly. The class is rather small and so the lectures feel very personal. It also helped that they were very engaging, as he constantly makes jokes, throws in fun facts, and asks questions to make sure the students are following along. There were two midterms and a take-home final (really more of a long, untimed assignment), in addition to weekly homeworks that weren't too bad as long as you have his slides and/or the textbook open to help if you get confused. There were regular readings, sometimes weekly, sometimes 2 per week, and while he covers most of that stuff in lecture, there are little things that you will need to know, so I'd recommend at least a quick readthrough to make sure you get the basic points of the reading. Overall, though, the class is very manageable and very enjoyable. I highly recommend it if you have an interest in the subject matter.
