The General Theory Of Employment, Interest And Money

"This book is Keynes' masterpiece, largely credited with creating the terminology and shape of modern macroeceonomics. Published in February 1936 it sought to bring about a revolution, commonly referred to as the 'Keynesian revolution', in the way economists thought - especially in relation to the proposition that a market economy tends naturally to restore itself to full employment after temporary shocks. Regarded widely as the cornerstone of Keynesian thought, the book challenged the established classical economics and introduced important new concepts.--Publisher.
