My teaching covered a wide variety of courses including demography, statistics, and leadership with a focus on classical theory. My research on theory, US public and private debt, and currency exchange rates has been published in the American Sociological Review and several national and international journals. I have been invited to speak on monetary reform in New Zealand, Poland, India, Libya, Togo, and Australia. My friend Bob Gill and I invented the economics simulation board game, Cooperation: The Wealth of Nations Game that enables students to learn and compare barter, socialism, capitalism and cooperation. I am now affiliated with the Provisional World Parliament promoting the Hour as the world currency unit.
