Steven Johnson: Where Good Ideas Come From by Steven Johnson on Free Online Video

Eclectic author Steven Johnson talks about his recent book Where Good Ideas Come From in this talk from TEDGlobal. Through researching good ideas throughout history Johnson tries to discover best environments in which good ideas are fostered. He covers the history of the coffee shop and how in British culture the switch from the bar to the coffee shop (with its stimulant accompaniment coffee) helped to foster the ideas of the Age of Enlightenment in Great Britain. He also talks about how great ideas often take a long time to germinate and aren't necessarily the "eureka" moments we often here about. This interesting talk is available on streaming video and MP3 audio download from TED.com.
