1. Red State Blue State: Why Americans Vote the Way They Do, by the consistently impressive Andrew Gelman.
2. Global Catastrophic Risks, edited by Nick Bostrom and Milan M. Cirkovic; so many smart, virile young men, all writing about destruction.
3. Prosperity Unbound: Building Property Markets with Trust, by Elena Panaritis. An update on the debates on Hernando de Soto and the associated land and property issues.
4. The Mirrored Heavens, by David J. Williams. A science fiction story for people who take the idea of space elevators for granted.
5. The Household: Informal Order Around the Hearth, by the noted law and economics scholar Robert C. Ellickson.
If I’m not reading them, it’s because I’ve been spending my time with Dreiser’s Sister Carrie and Norris’s McTeague, both for my Liberty Fund conference in Cleveland.
At last a reading list of Tyler’s that I can trump! Not only am I not reading the above I am also not (yet) reading Against Intellectual Monopoly the sure-to-be-important Boldrin and Levine book which arrived yesterday. Hah! Take that Tyler!
That’s OK summer reading Mr. C.
Both Sister Carrie and McTeague are fairly short reads, so you can get through them in good time, and both are fraught with part-revealed and part-concealed social and moral commentary of their eras.
i dont understand the virile part
