Wendy Harmer's Stuff examines our life-long affair with material objects.
Why do humans have the desire to accumulate? Is it a hard-wired instinct or learned behaviour? Why do we choose the things we do? Why is my "stuff" treasured while yours is just "junk"? How can we achieve an equitable share of the world's goods?
In this series Wendy talks to prisoners, Buddhist monks, Catholic priests, environmentalists, philosophers, sociologists, psychiatrists, economists and Australians of all ages and attempts to make sense of our attitudes to the material things of life.
