Click here for an interview with Professor Keith Hart, an anthropologist with a focus on how human cultures deal with money. Now, for those of you confused right now, anthropology is the study of humans in their society. Anthropologists don't focus on a certain society, but instead look at the culture of every society to compare and contrast. Professor Hart commutes from Paris to teach about how human societies organize economic systems. He wrote a book called "The Memory Bank, Money in an Unequal World" in which he warns that unless we take a good look at what money has become for the modern world, we're headed for disaster and doom. Greg Shimada, 20 years old, got Professor Hart on the phone to explain his take on "bread".
