Crossing the Delaware: 350 Years of New Jersey History by Jonathan Mercantini, a member of Kean University's Department of History since 2007. Professor Mercantini offers a short history of New Jersey and makes a case for using the past to understand the future. In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
