The prominent Aussie-American economist Justin Wolfers at the University of Michigan has been promoting Leigh’s book this week.

Given Wolfers’ broad following in the U.S., he may be introducing more economists/others to the idea of existential risks here: https://mobile.twitter.com/JustinWolfers/status/1465074869750702096

Also thanks, Matt, for your write-up!

Great review, thanks. Andrew Leigh is a really interesting profile, I’m surprised I haven’t seen more EA writing about him. Excited for more policy proposals about catastrophic risks over the coming years.

I wrote a blog to introduce EA to modern Stoics. https://newptcai.gitlab.io/blog/stoic-singer/

I think EA could also learn a few things from Stoics. Lessons in Stoicism by John Sellars is a good and short book. http://www.johnsellars.org.uk/lessons-in-stoicism.html
