State Profiles

State Profiles 2026: The Population and Economy of Each U.S. State has been completely updated and provides a wealth of current, authoritative, and comprehensive data on key demographic and economic indicators for each U.S. state and the District of Columbia. Each state is covered by a compact standardized chapter that allows for easy comparisons and timely analysis between the states. A ten-page profile for each U.S. state plus the District of Columbia provides reliable, up-to-date information on a wide range of topics, including: population, labor force, income and poverty, government finances, crime, education, health insurance coverage, voting, marital status, migration, and more. If you want a single source of key demographic and economic data on each of the U.S. states, there is no other book like this. It provides an overview of the U.S. economy which creates a framework for understanding the state information. State Profiles is primarily useful for public, school, and college and university libraries, as well as for economic and sociology departments. However, anyone needing state-level information including students, state officials, investors, economic analysts, and concerned citizens will find its wealth of data and analysis absolutely essential.

Hello, and welcome to Planet Money! Millions of listeners trust the world's leading economics podcast to explain the mysterious inner workings of the global economy and the forces that affect nearly every decision we make. Through expert research and delightful stories the Planet Money hosts help everyone see the world like an economist. In this first-ever book, Alex Mayyasi and the Planet Money team present brand-new stories and insights gathered from more than a decade of reporting to explain whether AI might help you or replace you, demystify dating markets and show how pro sports' "dumbest" contract reveals the secret to building wealth. Taking readers on adventures to a smartphone factory in Patagonia, a raisin cartel in California and an Indigenous reservation that might just solve the housing crisis, Planet Money shows how economics shapes our world and how we can harness key principles to make our own lives a little richer.

'It is quite a feat to pull off a densely informative book about a horrible subject that also manages to be charismatic and funny' - The Guardian Polls show that over 50% of us don't believe racism exists. In a world made for White people, The Science of Racism uses clear scientific research to expose what we know about racism, exactly how we know it, and what we can do about it. 'Illuminating, surprising, unnerving, moving' - Sathnam Sanghera 'Short circuits the brain' - The Independent 'A book that shouldn't have to exist . . . but I'm glad it does' - Adam Rutherford *British police are nine times more likely to use their tasers on Black people. *An item being advertised on eBay will sell for approximately 20% less if a dark-skinned hand is shown in the photos. *Black Caribbean applicants have to apply for around 50% more jobs in order to receive a positive response. Professor Keon West cuts through the divisive anecdotes and rhetoric with decades' worth of clear, factual, rigorous science - the data that reveals truths about racism that are shocking and tragic, but also (somehow) funny and entertaining. Whatever you've read before, this book will ensure that you never see racism in the same way again.

How do we know if racism really exists? And, if it does, how big a problem is it for the outcomes of people of colour? Only science has the answers to some of society's most pressing questions.

Everything you need to know but probably don't - yet

- How can the colours of a map reinforce our biases? - What does a postcolonial map of the world look like? - How do indigenous communities use maps to argue for self-determination? A stunning, thought-provoking exploration of how maps shape our understanding of the world - featuring over 150 beautiful full-colour maps. 'This striking study . . . lavishly illustrated . . . stuns' - Publishers Weekly 'A true genius of cartography . . . Radical Cartography will make you see maps, and, indeed, your place on the planet, with fresh eyes' - Daniel Immerwahr, author of How to Hide an Empire Maps are everywhere. They can change how cities are designed and how rivers flow, how wars are fought and how land claims are settled, how children learn about race and how colonialism becomes a habit of mind. Maps don't just show us information - they help construct our world. Cartographer and historian William Rankin argues that it's time to reimagine what a map can be and how it can be used. Maps are not neutral. They are innately political, defining how the world is divided, what becomes visible and what stays hidden, and whose voices are heard. Brimming with vibrant, radical maps created by Rankin and by other cutting-edge mapmakers, Radical Cartography challenges the map as a tool of the status quo. Changing our maps can change the questions we ask, the answers we accept - and the planet we build.

What Maps Tell Us About Who We Are

Radical Cartography

A former public defender takes us behind the closed doors of America's criminal courts, revealing how the institutions that claim to protect us are doing the exact opposite—and offering a blueprint for finally fixing it. “A searing, compassionate, and utterly necessary book that pulls back the curtain with the clarity of a lawyer and the heart of someone who’s seen the criminal legal system’s devastating consequences up close.”—Michelle Alexander, author of The New Jim Crow As Americans, we are told a rose-tinted story about our criminal courts—that these are the hallowed halls of justice, that the purpose of our legal process is to find the truth, and that those who enforce the law are both equitable and heroic. But what if the reality is purposefully obscured to hide something rotten at the system’s core? In The Price of Mercy, attorney and former public defender Emily Galvin Almanza weaves hard data and unforgettable stories, dark humor and compelling evidence to tell us the truth about what’s really going on behind the closed doors of America’s criminal courts. She shows us how jails actually increase future crime, the dirty tricks police use to make millions in overtime pay, how a man could spend decades in prison because scientists mistook dog hair for his own, the perverse incentives that push prosecutors to seek convictions even when they themselves don’t want to, and how judges may decide cases differently after lunch. We’ll learn what’s working, too: how public defenders can improve public health and even economic mobility, and how planting more trees can reduce a neighborhood’s murder rates. But a lone defender winning a case won’t change the system. Galvin Almanza argues that we need an engaged public to confront the stark reality of our crime-generating, poverty-entrenching, health-destroying legal apparatus and rebuild it into something that can save our collective present and prevent our future from being torn apart. Provocative and eye-opening, The Price of Mercy lifts the curtain on the way our laws really operate and presents a path forward for true transformation of the American criminal court system. Justice, and the law itself, is not some static thing. It is something enacted together, decision by decision, in acts of inhumanity or mercy.

The Price of Mercy

A novel framework for how entrepreneurs can use Bayesian reasoning to make decisions. This edited volume introduces and explores the concept of Bayesian entrepreneurship, a novel framework for understanding entrepreneurial decision-making under uncertainty. It brings together contributions from leading scholars to examine how entrepreneurs form beliefs about opportunities, learn through experimentation, and make strategic decisions. The Bayesian approach emphasizes the critical interaction between an entrepreneur’s prior beliefs and their capacity for learning and experimentation to update those beliefs. This dynamic process allows entrepreneurs to formulate and test theories about value creation and capture, attract resources and capabilities, and implement effective entrepreneurial strategies. The volume is organized around four key themes: <ul><li>the foundations and distinguishing features of Bayesian entrepreneurship </li><li>how entrepreneurs form and update prior beliefs in entrepreneurial decision-making</li><li>the role of experimentation and learning in entrepreneurial strategy</li><li>applications to entrepreneurship education and practice</li></ul> Bayesian Entrepreneurship offers both theoretical contributions advancing our understanding of entrepreneurial decision-making and practical insights for entrepreneurs and educators.

Why do we use eighty-year-old metrics to understand today’s economy? The ways that statisticians and governments measure the economy were developed in the 1940s, when the urgent economic problems were entirely different from those of today. In The Measure of Progress, Diane Coyle argues that the framework underpinning today’s economic statistics is so outdated that it functions as a distorting lens, or even a set of blinkers. When policymakers rely on such an antiquated conceptual tool, how can they measure, understand, and respond with any precision to what is happening in today’s digital economy? Coyle makes the case for a new framework, one that takes into consideration current economic realities. Coyle explains why economic statistics matter. They are essential for guiding better economic policies; they involve questions of freedom, justice, life, and death. Governments use statistics that affect people’s lives in ways large and small. The metrics for economic growth were developed when a lack of physical rather than natural capital was the binding constraint on growth, intangible value was less important, and the pressing economic policy challenge was managing demand rather than supply. Today’s challenges are different. Growth in living standards in rich economies has slowed, despite remarkable innovation, particularly in digital technologies. As a result, politics is contentious and democracy strained. Coyle argues that to understand the current economy, we need different data collected in a different framework of categories and definitions, and she offers some suggestions about what this would entail. Only with a new approach to measurement will we be able to achieve the right kind of growth for the benefit of all.

Why do we use eighty-year-old metrics to understand today's economy?

Agricultural Statistics

Agricultural Statistics is published each year to meet the diverse need for a reliable reference book on agricultural production. It covers an extensive list of issues related to agriculture including livestock, farm values, crop production, and foreign trade. The estimates for crops, livestock, and poultry made by the U.S. Department of Agriculture are prepared mainly to give timely current state and national totals and averages. They are based on data obtained by sample surveys of farmers and of people who do business with farmers. The survey data are supplemented by information from the Census of Agriculture taken every five years. Being estimates, they are subject to revision as more data become available from commercial or government sources. Unless otherwise indicated, the totals for the United States shown in the various tables on area, production, numbers, price, value, supplies, and disposition are based on official estimates. They exclude states for which no official estimates are compiled. Professionals in farming, ranching, agricultural consulting, and animal science will find this most valuable.

Praise for THE SUPER UPSIDE FACTOR "The Super Upside Factor unlocks the power of decision science and human systems, revealing practical strategies to leverage luck, embrace asymmetric opportunities, and achieve extraordinary returns in both life and career." -NIR EYAL, Author of Hooked: How to Build Habit-Forming Products "Daniel applies basic statistical principles and lessons learnt from his venture capital experience to deliver a compelling blueprint for achieving outsized success in an unpredictable world." -ALOK SAMA, Former President and CFO of SoftBank Group International and Author of The Money Trap "I often tell my mentees or students, 'Why not try?' when they seek advice, encouraging them to consider that the upside could be significantly greater, while the downside might not be as risky as they imagine. Daniel has eloquently explained this approach in his book, which I recommend for students and young professionals." -JIHOON RIM, Professor at NYU Stern and former CEO and Board Director of Kakao Corp "An intriguing and well-written case for applying risk-taking frameworks from venture investing to life decisions. If you find yourself hobbled by risk aversion, this book can provoke a thoughtful re-examination of the options." -KARTHIK RAMANNA, Oxford Professor and Author of The Age of Outrage: How to Lead in a Polarized World "In The Super Upside Factor, Daniel masterfully shows how to generate outsized rewards while protecting the downside.
