The most influential social science treatise of the twentieth century
First edition of the economist's masterpiece. This volume is generally regarded as the most influential social science treatise of the twentieth century. Octavo, original cloth. Signed and dated by Keynes on the dedication page. Fine in a near fine dust jacket with the very light wear. Housed in a custom half morocco clamshell box. Rare, especially signed.
The General Theory ranks with Smith’s Wealth of Nations as an intellectual event and with Malthus’ Essay on Population as a guide for public policy. The London Review of Books has grouped The General Theory "...among the glories of modern publishing...edited with exemplary authority and lack of fuss..." Many innovations of The General Theory remain central to modern macroeconomics. It was placed on Time's 2001 top one-hundred non-fiction books written in English since 1923.
