A Novel

A collection of eye-opening natural experiments, showing how economists uncover cause-and-effect relationships and reveal insights about our world. Does having a daughter change how a congressperson votes? How did a nineteenth-century doctor help discover germs? Is it better to go first or second in a penalty shootout? Why don’t diplomats pay their parking tickets? Do leaders really matter? These are all questions economists ask. Some of these questions are serious, others less consequential. But all are interesting—and can be answered by way of the natural experiment. A natural experiment is an event in the real world that neatly divides people into a treatment group and a control group—and it is one of the greatest tools in the economist’s toolkit. In Daughters, Diplomats, and Death, Patrick Gourley discusses why and how economists have leveraged this powerful method to answer questions that were long thought unanswerable. In the vein of Freakonomics, Nudge, and The Tipping Point, the book takes the reader on a lively and engaging tour of some of the most fascinating natural experiments, explaining how they work, how they help social scientists answer questions, and what conclusions they reached. The experiments illuminate a wide range of timely issues in health, education, reproductive issues, and the environment, lending rich and much-needed nuance to the complex debates that shape today’s headlines.

Daughters, Diplomats, and Death

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR The Right has spent decades trying to win elections. The Left has spent decades deciding who controls everything else.In How the Regime Rules, New York Times bestselling author Christopher F. Rufo delivers his most explosive work yet, exposing the hidden architecture of American power and revealing a battle plan for the New Right to dismantle it.The Regime is not a conspiracy. It is something far more formidable—a sprawling network of Deep State bureaucrats, media gatekeepers, university administrators, corporate executives, and ideological enforcers who dictate what Americans can say, what they are permitted to believe, and who gets destroyed for stepping out of line. Its reach is ubiquitous, its accountability virtually nonexistent. And for decades, conservatives have mistaken capitulation for statesmanship. Rufo demolishes the comforting fiction that institutions can be neutral, that the marketplace of ideas is fair, or that the Right can simply retreat from the contest for influence. The system is not broken. It is functioning precisely as its architects intended.Rufo knows how to expose the machinery and dismantle it. He transformed DEI from an untouchable orthodoxy into a political liability. He propelled allegations of Somali welfare fraud into the national spotlight. He identified structural vulnerabilities, punctured manufactured consensus, and demonstrated how seemingly impregnable bastions of authority can be forced onto the defensive. Now he reveals the playbook. From Samuel Adams and the Sons of Liberty to dismantling ideological strongholds in higher education, Rufo uncovers the mechanics of political domination. How narratives harden into unquestionable truths, how elites perpetuate their own authority, and how disciplined insurgents can upend an entire political order.Rufo agrees with the Left on one fundamental point: Every institution is an instrument of a particular vision of society. In How the Regime Rules, he argues that conservatives must stop mistaking political restraint for moral superiority, cultivate a formidable counter-elite, and master the levers of influence that shape American life.The Regime has perfected the art of ruling without appearing to rule. Now Rufo turns its own methods against it, showing the Right how to reclaim America's commanding heights and chart a new course for the country.

K Is for Kidlit

For decades, American companies helped set the pace of LGBTQ+ workplace inclusion. That centre of leadership has become less dependable as political pressure, legal uncertainty and corporate caution reshape business. Far beyond this corporate reversal, queer people worldwide face hate speech, online abuse and physical violence. Yet the global response is not simply retreat.The Rainbow Momentum follows the people and organizations that keep change moving: business leaders, employees, investors and advocates, alongside specialized civil-society groups connecting companies and queer communities. Across Europe, Asia and elsewhere, including Canada, these actors work within different cultures, laws and markets - and different understandings of individual rights, social responsibility and community. They show how locally adapted inclusion can deepen belonging, earn trust, attract talent, foster innovation and build economic resilience. They create new centres of influence and power. Drawing on interviews and international research, Jens Schadendorf shows how progress continues to take root, survives disruption and travels in several directions. The book concludes with twelve principles for action. Its argument is realistic but hopeful: when LGBTQ+ people and their allies turn experience into institutions, share knowledge and connect local initiatives, leadership multiplies - and they continue to shape tomorrow's economy.

How the LGBTQ+ community and its allies continue to shape tomorrow’s economy

The Rainbow Momentum

From the USA TODAY bestselling authors of the Witchlore series, Hazel Beck, comes the first book in a cozy, autumnal horror romance duology set in a seemingly charming Midwestern town&nbsp;that harbors a deep, dark plot at its core—one that could spell the end of its two newest arrivals if they can’t unravel the secrets woven into their late grandmother’s yarn shop. Home is where the haunt is. Lexi Darling has always been a city girl through and through. New York is loud, crowded, and just chaotic enough to keep her mind off everything she’d rather not think about—especially the eerily realistic nightmares that have plagued her all her life. So when she and her twin brother, Logan, are summoned to the postcard-perfect town of Midas, Iowa, one golden October to handle an inheritance from the grandmother they never knew, Lexi figures it’ll be a quick detour: sign a few papers, snap a fall foliage selfie, and catch the next flight home. But Midas has other plans. The town has been waiting for the Darling twins, and it’s not about to let them leave. Their arrival stirs up a centuries-old curse, one that promises something dark and hungry will rise again by Halloween night. And the key to stopping it might just lie in their family’s mysterious past. Now, trapped in Midas with the shadows closing in, Lexi has to team up with a group of stubborn locals to save the town…including Jack, the grumpy-but-unfairly attractive diner owner who drives her crazy in all the wrong ways. As the nights grow longer and an uncanny evil creeps closer, Lexi must uncover the truth behind the curse before Midas—and everyone in it—is consumed. Because in Midas, some secrets refuse to stay buried—and some nightmares never end. Perfect for fans of:&nbsp; <ul> <li>Slowburn Enemies to Lovers</li> <li>Grumpy x Sunshine</li> <li>Family Secrets</li> <li>Found Family</li> <li>A Cursed Tourist "Trap" Town</li> <li>Midwest Charm with a Twist...of a Knife</li></ul>

Some Kind of Haunted

FANTASIOSO, ROMÁNTICO, TÍMIDO Y PEREZOSO: SI ERES MUY DE FELIPE, ESTE LIBRO ES PARA TI. «Los personajes de Quino trascienden cualquier geografía, edad y condición social.' -Acta del jurado del Premio Príncipe de Asturias «¿No sería hermoso el mundo si las bibliotecas fueran más importantes que los bancos?'. Con esa convicción de lector y esa inocencia desbordada, se presenta Felipe, el tímido soñador de las tiras de Mafalda. Paladín del aplazamiento, conviven en él la ternura y la pereza, el miedo y la bondad, una imaginación sin límites y un rechazo casi filosófico al colegio. Por eso tantos lectores se han reconocido en su extraordinaria humanidad y en su celebérrima pregunta existencial: «¿Justo a mí tenía que tocarme ser como yo?'. Lo mejor de Felipe reúne las tiras más memorables de uno de los personajes más queridos de las tiras de Mafalda, y es el primer volumen de una serie que irá reuniendo los mejores momentos de cada uno de los personajes de la inolvidable pandilla. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION FANTASTICAL, ROMANTIC, SHY, AND LAZY: IF YOU'RE A BIG FAN OF FELIPE, THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU. "Quino's characters transcend geography, age, and social status." -Minutes of the Prince of Asturias Award jury "Wouldn't the world be beautiful if libraries were more important than banks?" With that conviction as a reader and that overflowing innocence, Felipe, the shy dreamer from the Mafalda comic strips, introduces himself. A champion of procrastination, he embodies tenderness and laziness, fear and kindness, boundless imagination, and an almost philosophical rejection of school. That is why so many readers have recognized themselves in his extraordinary humanity and his famous existential question: "Did it have to be me who turned out the way I did?" The Best of Felipe brings together the most memorable strips of one of the most beloved characters in the Mafalda comic strips, and is the first volume in a series that will bring together the best moments of each of the characters in the unforgettable gang.

This Is Worth Remembering

"Say Yes to the Dress meets Rosemary's Baby" (Margie Sarsfield) in this fresh, darkly funny horror novel in which a woman finally agrees to marry the man of her mother’s dreams. . . only to discover that wedding planning will eat you alive.&nbsp; If Ophelia Cohen learned one thing from her parents, it’s that getting married is a bad idea.&nbsp;But if she’s learning anything from her widowed mother’s dementia, it’s that dying alone is worse. So when she meets Luke—the man of her mother’s dreams—marriage suddenly doesn’t seem so crazy. But none of Ophelia’s obsessive scrolling on wedding forums can prepare her for the nightmare of planning her own. Why is her mother-in-law going crazy over every detail? Why is Luke’s family so eager to host the wedding in their vineyard’s ancient chapel? And what exactly will Ophelia have to sacrifice if she and her mother both hope to survive her special day? Shot through with wicked humor, pitch-black horror, and unexpected romance,&nbsp;Until Death&nbsp;is a deliciously dark and funny send-up of the wedding industrial complex—and a mother-daughter story unlike any you’ve read before. "Recognizes the Gothic horror inherent to planning a wedding and creates from it a painfully incisive and genuinely haunting fever dream.” —Kay Chronister, author of The Bog Wife&nbsp; “Completely unique, deeply unnerving, and deviously funny.” —Samantha Allen, author of Patricia Wants to Cuddle “Grabbed me like a creeping vine and wouldn't let go." —Kerry Cullen, author of House of Beth “Glistens with humor and horror. An electrifying and affecting debut.” —Samantha Hunt, author of The Seas
