Thanks, Kasey--I know some people ordered it in the past few days, but I see on the website that you are right. Perhaps something to do with adding the discount code. I'll get in touch with them.

The publisher of my book, How Economics Discovered Women, is providing a 30% discount for online preorders as of today: UCPSAVE30.
2 months prior to publication (ie June) you’ll be able to request course adoption copies on UC Press website. But they tell me you can reach out anytime to instructors@ucpress.edu with questions.
I’ll ask.
It's not just about women--economics had to discover women before we could discover men.
My book (!) How Economics Discovered Women is now available for pre-order from the University of California Press. The book is a survey and critique of how the economics of gender has developed since the mid-1970s. www.ucpress.edu/books/how-ec...

Don’t these people have jobs? Where they are supposed to be working for us? Important things seem to be happening right now, in fact.
An armistice can take weeks to negotiate. A comprehensive peace treaty can take months. No one on Earth who knows a thing about history or diplomacy thought anything could be resolved in six hours. This will confirm for everyone the extreme incompetence and bad faith of the American regime.
Targeting civilian infrastructure is a war crime.
Mocking the religion of people you are murdering is unspeakably heinous.
Slobbering profanity when you've been entrusted with vast violent power is stomach-churning.
These things will harm ALL Conservative and Liberal Americans. They harm us now.
found something rather baffling when researching my column this week…
I wanted to see if there was any evidence that AI tools were helping economists to make their research more readable. So I analysed the text of NBER working paper abstracts…
This afternoon at UW's 2026 MisinfoDay event, I'm excited to be addressing a wonderful group of K-12 educators about the challenges of teaching AI literacy and the approach that Jevin West, Linsey Kitchens, Liz Crouse, and I have developed to that meet that challenge.
Please please accept or decline requests to review papers immediately upon seeing the request. It's simple.
Most people don't have a good reason for being slow (though I realize a few might). It's crazy how many people are slow. They slow down the whole process for no good reason.
My question: How could the US sustain 10% tariffs on imports from the UK?
USTR's answer, last night: By complaining about its forced labour practices.
Specifically, for failing to shut out imports made with forced labour.

Issuance of F-1 student visas by the United States, to all countries, monthly through August 2025 (latest available).
The red line shows the start of the current US Administration.
Shutting out the world's talented young people will impoverish the future of every Conservative and Liberal American.
🔵 Democrats flip another seat in the New Hampshire State House.
Democrat Bobbi Boudman wins a special election in a Trump+9 district, after losing the same seat by 14 points in 2024. A 13-point Democratic overperformance.
I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.
I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.
1/ Here's what I can share:
Seems troubling.
More troubling would be the idea that the Administration might have bombed Iran without expecting this.
I was lead amicus on this brief, signed by 13 other expert economists, estimating the economic benefits to the United States of continuing to honor TPS for Haitians —>

Open this photo up and look for the small, white dot just left of centre.
It looks like Venus, shining brightly in the twilight sky.
But it's us.
It's Earth.
