Mary Catherine Bateson is an anthropologist and writer who says we live in a world full of strangers. We never really know even the people we?re closest to. The pace of change in today?s world has made it even more strange. Her solution: accept it, live with it, and celebrate a strange and wonderful world. She is the daughter of Margaret Mead, whose centenary was celebrated this week. Check out more www.marycatherinebateson.com and www.mead2001.org. This was origibally broadcast in September.
