Reviews

[A] combative and tightly argued book on the collapse of the recent consensus in economics. Taylor strives to reinstate not just Keynes but an entire school of economics...The tone of the book fluctuates between being clinically academic and sharply polemical, a delightful combination often seen in the writings of Keynes himself...The deeper point Taylor makes is that much of modern economics is actually derived from insights provided by economists in previous ages. He powerfully illustrates this in almost every chapter in his book. -- Niranjan Rajadhyaksha Mint 20110402 This volume is useful, and even entertaining, when viewed as a paean to Keynes and his ideas. -- E. Kacapyr Choice 20110501
