Brainwave. Illusion. The actor
Description
Peter Dinklage plays the closest thing there is to a hero in HBO's cult hit series A Game of Thrones (for which he won the Best Supporting Actor Emmy and Golden Globe last season). Yet throughout his career he has wrestled with a preconception of what a leading man should be. Duke psychologist and behavioral economist Dan Ariely's TED talk on irrational behavior has been viewed almost 2 million times. Together actor and psychologist talk about how irrational our perception can be.
