A website called Edge asked its community, made up of the most interesting minds in the world, the following question:
What is your dangerous idea?
An idea you think about (not necessarily one you originated) that is dangerous not because it is assumed to be false, but because it might be true?
One contributor sites Emotional Intelligence.
Read about his dangerous idea here (scroll down to, or control f for, John Gottman). Other contributors include phsychologists Mihalyi Csikszentmihalyi and Howard Gardner, neuroscientist V.S. Ramachandran, mathematician Keith Devlin, and many others.
Very provocative stuff...you are bound to get lost in this intellectual sandbox for a delicious chunk of time.
Notice Edge's credo:
To arrive at the Edge of the world's knowledge, seek out the most complex and sophisticated minds, put them in a room together and have them ask each other the questions they are asking themselves.
