Alex ‘Sandy’ Pentland, director of the Human Dynamics Lab at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), is introducing his new book, ‘Social Physics: How Good Ideas Spread – the Lessons from a New Science’ here at Davos this week.

MIT ‘big data’ guru and Nissan Advisory Board member, Pentland stopped by at the Nissan LEAF-powered Renault-Nissan Alliance Cocoa Hut to answer a few questions about his vision for the future of connected electric vehicles, autonomous driving and his ‘wish list’ for social mobility.
