Celebrated for its profound impact on economic thought and policy, this volume remains essential reading for professionals and enthusiasts seeking to understand the forces shaping global economies. ## Description John Maynard Keynes (1883-1946) is perhaps the foremost economic thinker of the twentieth century. On economic theory, he ranks with Adam Smith and Karl Marx; and his impact on how economics was practiced, from the Great Depression to the 1970s, was unmatched. The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money was first published in 1936. But its ideas had been forming for decades ? as a student at Cambridge, Keynes had written to a friend of his love for 'Free Trade and free thought'. Keynes's limpid style, concise prose, and vivid descriptions have helped to keep his ideas alive - as have the novelty and clarity, at times even the ambiguity, of his macroeconomic vision. He was troubled, above all, by high unemployment rates and large disparities in wealth and income. Only by curbing both, he thought, could individualism, ‘the most powerful instrument to better the future', be safeguarded. The twenty-first century may yet prove him right. In The Economic Consequences of the Peace (1919), Keynes elegantly and acutely exposes the folly of imposing austerity on a defeated and struggling nation. Review: The layman’s view. - Bought this as we are in a keynesian moment with the economy. Have always taken an interest in business and economics so thought would have a read . Basically it is very interesting but can be hard work so have skipped some parts but feel I have got the overall feel for the arguments made. To me the end book Consequences of the Peace is the most interesting as also took an interest in the origins of WW1 and WW2 and found this an excellent read let’s you know on so many levels how we got here politically etc. Review: Includes 'The Economic Consequences ....' - Truly excellent value for two of Keynes' most seminal books. The General Theory is mandated reading for any economics student, but anyone who can follow Skidelsky's monumental and brilliant three-volume biography will also find this intelligible, not least because of Keynes' enviable command of English. The appended Economic Consequences is a devastating criticism of the ludicrously excessive post-WW1 reparations demands on the Germans - and Keynes with his pointed and elegant way with words was a widely-feared past master of excoriating castigation. I rarely give 5-star ratings, but this is one. ## Features - New Store Stock ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 9,202 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 69 in Business & Economic History | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 645 Reviews | ## Images ![The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money: with The Economic Consequences of the Peace (Classics of World Literature) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91kFyBLsIML.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The layman’s view. *by P***C on 4 August 2020* Bought this as we are in a keynesian moment with the economy.

The General Theory is mandated reading for any economics student, but anyone who can follow Skidelsky's monumental and brilliant three-volume biography will also find this intelligible, not least because of Keynes' enviable command of English. The appended Economic Consequences is a devastating criticism of the ludicrously excessive post-WW1 reparations demands on the Germans - and Keynes with his pointed and elegant way with words was a widely-feared past master of excoriating castigation. I rarely give 5-star ratings, but this is one. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ An important and influential book *by G***E on 21 March 2022* I have not finished the book yet. The problem I ran into is that the analysis is rather mechanistic. I can cope with the maths, as I am an engineer, but am not sure that treating an economy as a mechanism is the right way to go about the job. Obviously, the sums have to add up, in the sense of balancing accounts, and there are statistics which can be helpful in describing what is going in the economy. Keynes was quite an expert on statistics, I understand. ## Frequently Bought Together - The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money: With the Economic Consequences of the Peace (Classics of World Literature) - Capitalism and Freedom - Wealth of Nations (Wordsworth Classics of World Literature) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/48983068-the-general-theory-of-employment-interest-and-money-with-economic](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/48983068-the-general-theory-of-employment-interest-and-money-with-economic) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-08-03*
