It is appropriately humid, wet, and (fairly) hot in London today; a reminder of what we're missing in New Orleans! Sad not to see old friends and learn of exciting new research. Nonetheless, thanks to @juliairwin, Gretchen, & @shafrorg for putting together the virtual conference!

Thrilled to have signed a contract with @cambUP_History for my book on how physicists, acrobats, seismologists, and many other Americans and Chinese beyond government remade the US-China relationship of the 1970s.

It is time to return to the 1950 Defense Production Act, but also think deeply about what can and can't be done through the DPA & supply chain + logistics more broadly -- see @madebyhistory on what the DPA alone is no cure-all for covid-19 supply issues washingtonpost.com/outlook/2…
