John Maynard Keynes 1883–1946 was the most important economist

interpretations of Keynes''s thought, explain the links between
Keynes''s philosophy and his economics, and place his work and
Keynesianism - the economic theory, the principles of economic
policy, and the political philosophy - in their historical context.
Chapter topics include Keynes''s philosophical engagement with G. E.
Moore and Franz Brentano, his correspondence, the role of his
General Theory in the creation of modern macroeconomics, and the
many meanings of Keynesianism. New readers will find this the most
convenient, accessible guide to Keynes currently available.

developments in the interpretation of Keynes.
