Tyler Cowen: Be suspicious of stories | Video on TED.com

Tyler Cowen is putting a finger on the danger of increasingly see everything as stories - a phenomenon that is growing with a enormous momentum due to the increasing complexity together with our basic human need to understand and instill meaning in our increasingly messy reality.
