Lessons in Chemistry

The census claim that the US is the "standard first" is NOT supported and is corrected here. Doubleday New York (Penguin Random House US) and Doubleday London (an imprint of Transworld, a different company) both published on 5 April 2022 per the publishers' own listings — a genuinely simultaneous issue with no established precedence. Both are collected and both should be named. Because both carry the Doubleday name, a UK copy is easily mistaken for the US first; separate them by ISBN prefix (0-385- = US New York; 0-85752- = UK London). Garmus is an American resident in London, which is why UK copies circulate widely in the US market.
