This book and his others give glimpses into the daily lives of families around the world. He has representative families from many different countries and cultures take out all the possessions and arrange them in front of their homes, and takes their pictures with all of it. There are lots of interesting details about the possessions and the lives of the families. His other books are Women in the Material World, and Hungry Planet, which pictures the food each family eats in one week or one month.
