A penetrating study of the legacy of Keynesian economics by the economist, civil servant and banker Eric Roll, Baron Roll of Ipsden (1907-2005). ‘Keynes’s supreme achievement, Sir Eric Roll believes, was in demonstrating that standards which apply to the conduct of an individual differ from those that apply to the aggregate actions of a large number of individuals, such as the state. This premise - which has become a tenet of modern economic thought - enlarged our understanding of the world economic process’ (dust jacket blurb).
