"An irreverent, well-written, no-nonsense, fact-packed guide to some of the unexpected consequences of weed legalization. Both surprising and enlightening!"--Laurie Santos, Professor of Psychology, Yale University, and host of The Happiness Lab podcast "It's high time economists took a serious look at weed. This insightful and entertaining joint effort sheds light on an important topic."--Jayson Lusk, Distinguished Professor and Head of the Department of Agricultural Economics, Purdue University, and author of The Food Police and Unnaturally Delicious "Robin Goldstein and Daniel Sumner provide a comprehensive guide to the key economic and regulatory factors that are driving the markets for weed, while at the same time offering plenty of fun anecdotes for an enjoyable read. A must-have reference for anyone considering participating in this industry as an investor, producer, retailer, policy maker, or consumer."--Bradley Rickard, Professor of Food and Agricultural Economics, Cornell University "Not just your ordinary puff piece, Can Legal Weed Win? delivers a refreshing explanation of how the legalization of cannabis ended up in smoke and how it can get straight again. Goldstein and Sumner take a refreshingly objective perspective, which few weed books do, and explain with simple, understandable economic intuition how we have arrived at a dual-market (legal and illegal) system."--Michael McCullough, Professor of Agribusiness, California Polytechnic State University, and CEO of the Beeronomics Society

"Andrea Giunta, one of the most insightful and forward looking intellectuals working today, has created an extensive network of ideas and observations about the multiple roles played by women artists, critics, curators, and gallerists throughout Latin America. The Political Body is essential reading for all connected in any way to the world of contemporary art."--Edward J. Sullivan, Helen Gould Shepard Professor in the History of Art, New York University "Since the early 1990s, Andrea Giunta has been a pioneer scholar on feminist art in Latin America. In her hands, this book is neither a genealogy nor a History with capital H; instead, in its specificity, it highlights the forms of resistance, denouncement, and emancipative creative imagination by women artists in the context of gender, social, and racial oppression in Latin America. By combining a constellation of microhistories and academic research with Giunta's own first-person voice, the book counters stereotypes, racial discrimination, marginalization, and the invisibilization of women, and instead foregrounds the transformational role of feminist art and politics since the mid-twentieth century."--Cecilia Fajardo-Hill, independent curator and art historian
