I have, over the last couple of days, said on at least a couple of occasions that our new book, The Best of the Blog 2025, is the first of the two books we hope to have out for Christmas. What I did not mention on either occasion was what the second might be.

That will be our guide to modern monetary theory, or modern money as I now prefer to call it, if I can get it completed on time. This will be a bit of a challenge because not only are there nearly 60 blog posts and glossary entries that I wish to include in this publication, but I also wish to contextualise those posts to highlight how they address the questions that so many people ask about MMT, and why it is so important.

The good news is that the posts to include in the publication have now been identified. Three of us have been involved in this process.

The bad news is that they are not all yet transferred into the book text, and so far, almost none of the contextualising sections have been written. That makes the task a challenge, not least when there are still a lot of videos to make to take us over the Christmas period.

In addition, there are one or two glossary entries, in particular, that might still be needed to provide necessary links in the story. If you wonder why there might be more than an average number of posts of this sort over the coming days, this is the explanation.

What I am, however, hoping is that you have plenty of Funding the Future material to read at Christmas and the New Year. I'm doing my best to make sure that is possible.

The Best of the Blog 2025 is available as a free download from our PDF shop, here.
