In this final issue of the inaugural year of the Reading Wheel Review, CRCD executive director Trey Dimsdale interviews Dr. Catherine Ruth Pakaluk, a Harvard-trained economist and professor at the Busch School of Business at the Catholic University of America and a senior fellow at the CRCD. They discuss Pakaluk’s book, Hannah’s Children: The Women Quietly Defying the Birth Dearth, as well as its reception and its resonance with her own experience as the mother of eight, step-mother to six, and grandmother to 29.

Physical books are at once a conduit for conveying complex and well-developed ideas and an artifact of the time and place from which they come. Each month the Reading Wheel Review (RWR) will select one book to engage and then each week we will publish a different engagement with that text, typically a review, an excerpt, a substantively related essay, or an interview with the author or a figure who works in the field represented by the book we’ve selected. We look forward to sustained engagement with a variety of books, both new and old, as we launch and grow the RWR. Sign up to keep connected.
