Sample of titles from Gary King's works in progress

I was just looking up one of Gary King's papers on his preprint page, since I don't have access to the journal in which it was published. I found so many interesting and useful preprints there that I had a hard time just getting to what I was looking for. A sampling of the titles is the quickest way to indicate the range and relevance of his works:

- Measuring Total Health Inequality: Adding Individual Variation to Group-Level Differences

- The Essential Role of Pair Matching in Cluster-Randomized Experiments, with Application to the Mexican Universal Health Insurance Evaluation

- The Future of Death in America

- How Not to Lie Without Statistics

- Matching for Causal Inference Without Balance Checking

- A `Politically Robust' Experimental Design for Public Policy Evaluation, with Application to the Mexican Universal Health Insurance Program

- What to do When Your Hessian is Not Invertible: Alternatives to Model Respecification in Nonlinear Estimation

- Armed Conflict as a Public Health Problem

This list also provides inspiration towards better titles in my future publications. Gary has a paper with advice on writing for publication, too - see his site.
