The General Theory of Profit Equilibrium : Keynes and the Entrepreneur Economy

John Maynard Keynes's "The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money" remains central to economic debate over 60 years after its publication. This book aims to show how Keynes's text is best understood not as an attempt to tackle the immediate policy issues of his age but to extend the range of thought available to economists. Understood as such, it continues to provide a framework to the central issues about the functioning of the economy. The author offers an exposition of Keynes's thought and its continuing relevance for economists in academic, business and government life.
