Sobre este item
London, Macmillan and Co., 1923. . First edition, first impression; 8vo; publisher's blue cloth, titles to spine gilt, with the printed dust jacket; an exceptional copy; viii, 209pp.
stock23 A spectacular copy in collector's condition of the first of Keynes's major contributions to economic theory. A significant text in which, for instance, he dismisses the gold standard out of hand as 'a barbarous relic'. The theorising here would lead directly to the wider exposition of The General Theory and may be seen as its prolegomenon. It is also the source of his notorious statement, 'In the long run we are all dead'.
Copies in cloth are not uncommon but examples such as in this in jacket and in collector's condition are genuinely rare.

Sinopse
John Maynard Keynes (1883-1946) was the most influential economist of the first half of the twentieth century. During both world wars he was an adviser to the British treasury, and his theory of government stimulation of the economy through deficit spending influenced Franklin D. Roosevelt's "New Deal" administration. The mass unemployment caused by the Great Depression inspired his two most famous works, A Treatise on Money and General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money.
