The purpose of the site is to make it easier for people to get copies of things I have written. Eventually, I hope to post downloadable copies of all my professional papers, newspaper columns and other writings.

For now, my New York Times Economic Scene columns are posted on the "Economic Scene" page; op-eds and other popular press pieces on the "Popular Press" page, and a copy of my c.v. on the "Academic Papers" page. If you'd like a copy of a paper you see on my c.v. before I've had time to post it in downloadable form, send me an e-mail and I'll send it to you as an e-mail attachment. For more information about my books, see the "Links" page.

The Economic Naturalist's Field Guide: Common Sense Principles for Troubled Times was published by Basic Books on June 1, 2009. An excerpt and my interview with Neal Conan on NPR's talk of the Nation are here. The PowerPoint file for my talk about the book at London's Royal Society for the Arts is here.
