The questions Donald Moggridge sets out to answer have made this book a classic and the best introduction available to Maynard Keynes's life and economic theories: Who was this economist, whose influence, directly or indirectly, affects so many lives - whom many praise and not a few condemn? What were his intellectual origins, his characteristic modes of thought, his beliefs, his ideas? The third edition contains extensive revisions, bringing it up to date with current research in Keynes studies. The concluding chapter has been completely rewritten and there are fuller discussions on Keynes's politics and his Treatise on Probability, as well as new material on the creation of the General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money.
