This week we have an interview with Sarah Caro, who describes herself on Twitter as ‘Editorial Director for Social Sciences at Princeton University Press, long-suffering Arsenal fan and qualified optimist’. In this interview we focus mostly on the first of those, though the third clearly influences everything Sarah does.

As you’ll hear, she’s had an amazingly dynamic career, having worked at a significant number of leading publishers in senior roles across a number of disciplines. Along with her management role, so still finds time to commission and edit books: she’s the editor of one of Princeton’s highest-grossing, highest-profile recent titles, Capitalism Without Capital by Jonathan Haskel and Stian Westlake.

Of PUP's place in economics publishing, Sarah says:


Princeton has always been very good, especially in economics, at commissioning high profile authors and fashioning them so that they still have huge intellectual heft and are highly respected within the academy, but they're read by a very wide audience of people outside the academy, including policymakers and people working in the finance industry, and just generally people who are involved in all aspects of government and business.
