|aThe General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money is the pinnacleof the intellectual achievements of John Maynard Keynes, and certainlyhis most well-known work. The General Theory was central to economic thought for much of the second half of the twentieth century, and continues to have great relevance in the twenty-first. However, for many students coming to the book for the first time,the General Theory can be adifficult text to fully grasp on an initial reading. This book is a comprehensive guide for those seeking to fully understand the General Theory, and especially those approaching Keynes' seminal work for the first time. It provides a wide-ranging overview of the work, covering both the familiar and lesser-known elements, and contextualises the key ideas with Keynes' other writings. The book also highlights Keynes' important policy insights that are increasingly pertinent for contemporary economic circumstances. The General Theory is essential reading for anyoneinterested in economics, and this book is an essential introduction toKeynes' most influential text.
