Author Talk - Stuff: Compulsive Hoarding and the Meaning of Things by Randy O. Frost and Gail Steketee

Come to the Newton Free Library for an author talk with Drs. Randy O. Frost and Gail Steketee, who will discuss their new book Stuff: Compulsive Hoarding and the Meaning of Things.  These two acclaimed scientists were the first to study hoarding when they began their work a decade ago.  Their book discusses how, in our materialistic culture, the appetite for accumulating stuff can cross the line and reach unhealthy levels.

A book signing will follow with books provided by New England Mobile Book Fair.
