KEYNES (John Maynard).
A Treatise on Money. Volume I: The Pure Theory of Money. Volume II: The Applied Theory of Money.

The first of Keynes’s two main contributions to economic thought and his most comprehensive work on monetary theory - complete with the nice unrestored examples of the rare dust jackets.

A Treatise on Money anticipated many of the ideas set forth in the General Theory, but differed from the latter in important aspects of its focus, paying closer attention to the theory of price levels rather than levels of output and employment.
