Today is book launch day!
I'm so excited to share the product of nearly 20 years of research. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.
Friends,
This is a big day for me. I hope The Truth About Immigration creates an inflection point in how we talk about immigration, marked by convincing evidence and factual optimism rather than fear.
Sincere thanks for your support thus far! It’s not easy being a first-time book author, and your encouragement has made all the difference. I’ve already pestered you enough, so I’ll keep the rest of this message short. (If you’re a bit tired of book promotion, I’ll be back in a few weeks with the usual content.)
If you haven’t yet purchased your copy of The Truth About Immigration, you can get it anywhere books are sold: Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Bookshop, Porchlight, BAM, or wherever you prefer.
If you already ordered a copy, thank you! Would you consider doing one or more of the following?
Write a positive review on Amazon or Goodreads. Research shows that the first few review of a product is quite fateful. It casts a very long shadow and affects how well a product sells throughout its entire lifetime.***
Tell everyone you know about it. This may come across as insincere, but my primary motivation is not commercial (there are way more efficient ways to make money than writing a book). I deeply want the world to know the truth about such an important and unnecessarily divisive topic!
Drop me a line with your reactions and questions. I really want to know what resonates with you, what you have questions about, and what you’d like me to say more about.
Finally, you’re invited to a book launch webinar co-hosted by Wharton and the Migration Policy Institute tomorrow (June 5) at noon US ET. Please register here. Hope to see you there!
Thanks again!
I look forward to continuing the conversation,
Zeke
*** PS: Speaking of positive reviews… While I’m super proud that my book has been endorsed by several high-profile people, no review made me prouder than the one written by my 10-year-old daughter for one of her class assignments:
