What Our Customers Say...

Description

First Edition, Pleasing Copy, Publishers' Original Binding, With Dustwrapper

With the very scarce original dust wrapper in a lovely condition. The paper label to the spine remains complete, and very clean. This work was Keynes' Sidney Ball Lecture delivered at Oxford in 1924. Extremely scarce with the dust wrapper in such a smart condition. To this work, Keynes agrees in principle that a marketplace of free individuals pursuing their own self-interest without government interference allows for the improvement of a society's economic situation than a socialist alternative. However, he also finds that a government can be constructive in protecting people from the worst of capitalism's cycles. An important work in the Keynesian cannon.
