Why do well-intentioned plans for improving the human condition go tragically awry? Author James C. Scott analyzes failed cases of large-scale authoritarian plans in a variety of fields.

AIQ will teach listeners that language - but in an unconventional way, anchored in stories rather than mathematics.
