Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Keynes’ General Theory revolutionised economic policy and theory, but it can be dense, cryptic, and hard to follow for modern readers. Even most Keynesian economists have not read it.

This companion works through Keynes’ argument clearly, explaining his terms, his ideas, and their significance for his time and ours. It also helps explain how the meaning of the word “Keynesian” has become so contentious today, and so important.
