The 4th volume of Davidson's major contributions to the economics and policy debates of our times, this book contains articles, newspaper columns and papers that explain why Keynes's General Theory, as developed by Post Keynesian theorists, provides important policy implications for the economic problems of the 21st century global economy.

This book looks at the life of Keynes leading up to the writing of his seminal General Theory, examines the General Theory in detail, and explores how it differs from classical theory. The impact of Keynes's work on the economy postwar and up to the present day is also assessed.
