An authoritative study not only of Keynes's contributions in The General Theory and The Treatise but also of the relevance of these contributions to modern problems. This is an ideal teaching book. It is written with a quiet authority which gives the reader the confidence to feel that this is the authentic interpretation.

Ms. Chick succeeds in clearing up yet a few more errors in the conventional interpretation of Keynes, some of them quite fundamental and basically simple. Her discussion of finance in Keynes is particularly enlightening. Essentially her overriding principle is that the Keynesian system should be interpreted in the context for which it was written, and must not be throughtlessly adapted to quite different economic regimes.
