Synopsis

'This book traces an important and exciting chapter in the history of economic thought, with painstaking documentation from old sources and from previously unexploited, unpublished material. It does this with a sure and mature understanding of the intellectual and theoretical issues. Dimand is an excellent theorist himself. The book is beautifully and clearly written.'
- James Tobin, Yale University, US

'Dimand's book will stimulate much discussion. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in the development of monetary and macroeconomic theory during the 1920s and 1960s.'
- Robert Stanley Herren, Journal of Economic History

'Robert Dimand has written an excellent study of the evolution of J.M. Keynes's economic thought from its origins in orthodox Cambridge monetary theory through its early 1930s development leading to the General Theory.'
- John B. Davis, Review of Social Economy
