My goal is to create a book that can be used be anyone, or any group that needs help with their relationships. After I defended my dissertation in March 2013 I walked out of the meeting fully convinced that my dissertation was the beginning of a book.

I earned a BA in economics at Wisconsin and a PhD at Chicago. My research has been in the field of monetary economics, particularly the role of the gold standard in the Great Depression.

Feeling sorry for myself (just a lot of whining) DoctorWorm222 member. July 2012 in October 2011 Moms. I can't really talk to anyone about this IRL, so I thought I'd get if off my chest here.
