Noreena Hertz : How to use experts - and when not to

Noreena Hertz at TEDSalon London 2010
How to use experts - and when not to  (transcript)
Summary
I strongly agree on what the speaker tells us in the talk.
We believe and rely too much on experts.
We listen to whatever experts’ opinions are right or wrong, we take them, and our brains switch off to think.
I think that especially Japanese people do that. They obey their fathers, teachers, doctors, and government every day without thinking well.

Relying on only experts means that there are high risks, dangerous because our world and society are complexities with interest and huge data.  Experts also make mistakes and they do a lot of things for money.

We have to keep our independent decision-making part of our brains switched on.
We have to learn that relying on experts too much is dangerous to live well from now.
