I am a bit late to this party, but I finally got around to reading Dan Wang's Breakneck. It is a thoughtful and very readable book that taught me a lot about the Chinese economy and political system. Highly recommended for anyone interested in the topic.

I just finished the new book by my ertswhile colleague Al Roth. Highly recommended! The subtitle is a good summary.

My Broadway Debut

Last week, I saw the play Every Billiant Thing, which was absolutely fantastic. As this NY Times article describes, audience participation is central. In our performance, I was picked to play the father. Here I am with the star, Daniel Radcliffe, backstage after the play, along with my wife and younger son.

Thank you, AEA
