TED talks is a website showcasing video presentations by influential and inspiring speakers across a whole range of subjects. I concede that you're unlikely to find anything that you can stick in a reference list but that's not what TED (which stands for Technology, Education and Design) is about. The ideas that you'll find being presented here are a mixture of practical projects with measurable outcomes and BIG ideas to change the world.
I've come across a number of thinkers here that have lead me to view issues in a slightly, or in a few cases completely, different way.
Have an explore on the TED Website and contact me with details of any presentations that you enjoyed.

Randomly sat next to this remarkable lady at a hotel breakfast the other day. I'd also recommend the film about her life!

Have just watched it - she makes good sense. Feel slightly embarrassed now that I hadn't heard of her previously.
