Physicist Geoffrey West discovered that simple mathematical laws govern cities. He found that a city's population can predict various aspects, including wealth, crime rates, and walking speed.

In his insightful TEDGlobal talk, West explains this remarkable phenomenon, demonstrating how similar scaling laws also apply to organisms and corporations.

James Glattfelder, a complexity theorist, studies how interconnected systems, like a bird swarm, are more than the sum of their parts. He applies this theory to the global economy, offering insights into its intricate workings.

Glattfelder's groundbreaking study reveals how control is concentrated among a surprisingly small number of entities. This significant power concentration leaves the entire global economy vulnerable. His findings were presented at TEDxZurich and published on February 13, 2013.

Behavioral economist Dan Ariely, author of "Predictably Irrational," reveals how our decisions are

Behavioral economist Dan Ariely, author of "Predictably Irrational," reveals how our decisions are often irrational. Using classic visual illusions and surprising research, he demonstrates that we are not as logical as we believe.

Ariely's work highlights a fundamental flaw in traditional economics: its disconnect from actual human behavior. His insights explain why our choices are often predictable, yet irrational.
