Yale University Press Accidental Conflict
Book SynopsisThe misguided forces driving conflict escalation between America and China, and the path to a new relationshipTrade Review“Stephen Roach . . . believes that China and the US both should and could have a workably co-operative relationship. Instead, they have fallen victim to mutually reinforcing false narratives of the other. Roach insists that there exists a way of trust and interdependence. Conceptually, he is right. Indeed, conflict would damage everybody, possibly catastrophically. But can it still be avoided?”—Martin Wolf, Financial Times, “Best Books of 2022: Economics”“A powerful new book.”—Gillian Tett, Financial Times“China and America are locked in a destructive codependence. Stephen Roach is right to apply a psychological lens to the increasing friction between the two countries.”—Rana Foroohar, Financial Times“[Roach’s] diagnosis of the current situation and how we got here is convincing, while he tries to offer ideas for how the two countries can avoid their rivalry descending into a catastrophic military confrontation.”—Andrew Peaple, SPE“A remarkable book. Accidental Conflict offers a wealth of evidence about and a new depth of understanding of the underlying forces that drive the Chinese and United States economies.”—Robert J. Shiller, author of Narrative Economics: How Stories Go Viral and Drive Major Economic Events“If you wonder how the US-China relationship has gone from friendly to hostile in a few years, this is the book for you. It details the economic and political processes underlying this change and presents an avenue to avoid ‘Accidental Conflict.’”—Robert Engle, Nobel laureate in Economic Sciences, 2003“Accidental Conflict is a very important and timely book. Its arguments and analyses have the potential to change misperceptions by policymakers and analysts on both sides and avoid a dangerous and mutually destructive course.”—Laura D. Tyson, former chair, White House Council of Economic Advisers“I can think of no one better qualified than Steve Roach to explain how the China-America bromance went wrong, and how it could, with good will on both sides, be put right.”—Howard Davies, author of The Chancellors: Steering the British Economy in Crisis Times

Yale University Press The Globalization Myth
Book SynopsisA case for why regionalization, not globalization, has been the biggest economic trend of the past forty yearsTrade Review“It is regionalisation, not globalisation, that explains the mechanics of prosperity. . . . If hope truly does lie in thought, we need to take our thinking about the world a lot more seriously than we do today.”—Richard Horton, The Lancet“Regionalization is quickly becoming the new globalization. Shannon O’Neil’s The Globalization Myth deftly explains why the key to America’s continued industrial competitiveness lies neither in ‘America alone’ reshoring nor in laissez faire offshoring, but in nearshoring. An important corrective to a broken public policy debate.”—Ian Bremmer, president, Eurasia Group“Shannon O’Neil’s call for ‘more NAFTAs and fewer America Firsts’ is timely, constructive, and pragmatic. With her deep knowledge of the Americas and of the politics of regional integration, she makes a practical case for an American economic strategy which would work in a world dividing more into blocs. I urge our elected officials to open their minds to O’Neil’s compelling argument.”—Adam S. Posen, president, Peterson Institute for International Economics“This is a phenomenal book about regionalization. Global markets are consolidating into three regional hubs. The US needs to act on that, or it will get left behind. I found this a gripping read!”—Ann E. Harrison, University of California, Berkeley

Yale University Press We Need to Talk About Inflation
Book SynopsisA myth-busting explanation of inflation, the desperate gullibility of central bankers and finance ministers—and our abject failure to learn from historyTrade Review“My kind of inflation book. There is lots of great storytelling, which lightens the subject matter, and makes it accessible to non-experts.”—Moira O’Neill, Financial Times, “Best Summer Books of 2023: Money”“Historically informed and lucid.”—Martin Wolf, Financial Times, “Best Summer Books of 2023: Economics”“Not just a useful and well-written account of inflation for the layman, but a contribution to a debate that is still very much live. A brilliantly clear and concise new history.”—Juliet Samuel, Times (UK)“As with all the best economists, King’s views are grounded in an understanding of our historical experience.”—Roger Bootle, Daily Telegraph“Highly readable and informative. . . . King’s timely book should be essential reading for economic policymakers everywhere.”—Nick Macpherson, Financial Times“[An] excellent and readable new book about the re-emergence of inflation.”—Larry Elliot, The Guardian“A damning critique. . . . King writes lucidly, avoiding the jargon that makes economics impenetrable to the lay reader.”—Edward Chancellor, Times Literary Supplement“[A] lively polemic. . . . King’s view is that getting inflation back down to 2 percent will involve breaking more eggs than the authorities are prepared to acknowledge.”—Howard Davies, Literary Review“A powerful combination of history, current affairs and economic analysis.”—Mohamed A. El-Erian, on Twitter“Equal parts history lesson, policy primer and cri de coeur for index-linked pocket money, We Need to Talk About Inflation makes its subject as engaging as it is urgent—highly recommended for aspiring economists, and actual economists in search of historical perspective.”—Tom Orlik, chief economist for Bloomberg Economics, on Twitter“King makes his case with verve, in the process delineating the pernicious effects of inflation and underscoring the absurdity of thinking it could never reappear in advanced economies.”—Max Harris, Finance & Development“This is a fun book to read and with an important underlying message—central banks are under watch everywhere. How they emerge from this inflation crisis will determine both their reputation worldwide and how they evolve from here.”—Vicky Pryce, Society of Professional Economists“If you have a relative or friend who has kept asking what all this ‘inflation stuff’ is about, consider giving them a copy of this very readable book.” —Michael Reddell, Central Banking “Most of those who have to deal with inflation are too young to remember when it was last a serious issue. This book teaches them what they need to know. King’s lessons command our attention.”—Lawrence H. Summers, former US Treasury Secretary“Everything you wanted to know about inflation but were afraid to ask. This book is timely, well-researched and very well-written.”—Mervyn King, former governor of the Bank of England“Reading Stephen King over the years has often given me advance notice of the next big economic story. Maybe you don’t think inflation is back for good. That is your right. But you’d be advised to read this book first.”—Stephanie Flanders, head of Economics and Government at Bloomberg

Hachette Books Ask
Book SynopsisGlobally recognized expert on learning and leadership, Jeff Wetzler offers a hands-on, surprisingly effective way to find out what others really think, know, and feel. Ask leads to smarter decisions, more creative solutions, and deeper relationships. Too often, we don’t find out what’s truly on others’ hearts and minds because we don’t know how to ask the right questions in the right ways. Co-founder of Transcend and former international business consultant and Teach for America executive Jeff Wetzler wants to show you how to fix that. In Ask, he brings you a powerful method called The Ask Approach™, based on a simple premise: that tapping into what other people truly think, know, and feel is a game-changing superpower. In Section I, Wetzler reveals the most common things that people think and feel but often keep to themselves, as well as the key reasons why they choose to withhold information that

Little, Brown & Company You Dont Need a Budget
Book SynopsisFree yourself from the tyranny of toxic budget culture, and build an ethical, stress-free financial life. Track every dollar you spend. Check your account balances once a week. Always pay off your credit card bill in full. Make a budget—and stick to it. These are just a few of the edicts you'll find in virtually every personal finance book. But this kind of rigid, one‑size-fits‑all advice—usually written for and by wealthy white men (and a few women) with little perspective on the money struggles that many people face—is unrealistic, and only creates stress and shame. As a financial journalist and educator, Dana Miranda is on a mission to liberate readers from budget culture: the damaging set of beliefs around money that rely on restriction, shame, and greed—much like diet culture does for food and bodies. In this long‑overdue alternative to traditional budgeting advice, Miranda offers a new approach that makes money easy for everyone, regardless of the numbers in their bank account. Full of counterintuitive advice—like how to use debt to support your life goals, how to plan for retirement without a 401K, and how to take advantage of resources that exist to support those left behind by the forces of capitalism—You Don’t Need a Budget will empower readers to get money off their mind and live the lives they want.
