Disinherited: How Washington is Betraying America’s Young

Achieving success will be more difficult for millennials and Gen Z, because Washington makes decisions that makes their lives harder than those of their parents and grandparents. Personal stories and interviews illustrate how young people are paying disproportionately for their grandparents’ pensions and healthcare; how tuition bills are driven higher by government actions; and how regulations keep them out of the workplace. 


Winner of the 2016 Sir Antony Fisher International Memorial Award.

The Feminist Dilemma: When Success Is Not Enough

Over the past half century American women have overcome the legal and cultural barriers to equal opportunity. Women are CEOs, law partners, and university presidents. No longer is it legal, as it once was, to advertise jobs with one salary for men and a lower one for women. Yet, with a focus on equality of outcomes instead of equality of opportunity, the myth of women as victims continues to resonate.
