What's the Big Idea

The Big Idea is that everything is an idea. What we do and how we do it — from the movies we like to the clothes we wear, from the cars we drive to the food we eat — is a reflection of how we understand the world. From the halls of academia to the tanning salons at the local mall, this blog will track the ideas that are shaping our world, and help us think about what we’re thinking about. It's written by N&O Ideas Columnist J. Peder Zane, who welcomes your e-mail.
