Ranging widely across the landscape that defines its subject matter, this book is about the fall and rise of Keynesian economics. It considers how powerful Keynesian ideas can be when applied to past and present economic problems. It shows how helpful these ideas are in explaining why we came to find ourselves in the disorder we are in. It examines where and how the analytical and methodological foundations of conventional macroeconomic wisdom went wrong. It sets out a blueprint for an alternative that provides a clearer, more consistent, and more applicable approach to understanding how markets work.
