JAMES GEARY: THE SECRET LIFE OF METAPHOR
We utter about one metaphor for every ten to 25 words, or about six metaphors a minute. In this lively and informative talk (which includes live juggling of words as well as balls) James Geary shows how metaphor influences our attitudes, beliefs, and actions in surprising, hidden, and often oddball ways.
James Geary is author of "I Is an Other: The Secret Life of Metaphor" and the New York Times bestseller "The World in a Phrase: A Brief History of the Aphorism."
