Alice Sherwood SOLD OUT Authenticity: Reclaiming Reality in a Counterfeit Culture

We live in an age when the pursuit of authenticity - from living our 'best life' to eating artisan food - increasingly matters to us, but our world is full of people and products that are not what they seem. We no longer know whether we are talking to a person or a machine. The former documentary maker and now Senior Visiting Research Fellow at the Policy Institute at King's College London explains how our counterfeit culture is shaped bythe most powerful forces of evolution, economics, and technology, but we can still come together to reclaim reality. She'll also reveal some outrageous deceivers and the foot soldiers who are taking down today's conspiracies and cons.
