The roots of good and evil: Simon Baron Cohen
How is it that otherwise intelligent people can inflict such terrible harm upon others? Simon Baron Cohen believes that we should examine the effect on empathy on human behavior, rather than blindly lumping it into abstract categories like “good” and “evil.” (Filmed at TEDxHousesofParliament)
Each week, we choose four of our favorite talks, highlighting just a few of the enlightening speakers from the TEDx community, and its diverse constellation of ideas worth spreading. Browse all TEDxTalks here »
