Tyler Cowen at Google

I'm a big fan of Marginal Revolution and of Tyler Cowen, so naturally I had to watch this video of Tyler Cowen at Google:



Tyler was ostensibly there to discuss his new book, Discover Your Inner Economist, but, inspired by the recently announced Google-funded prize for landing an unmanned vehicle on the moon, he decided to discuss prizes versus grants.

Later in his talk he discusses how best to give to charity — from an economist's point of view, of course.
