More DescriptionKeynes was really the father of modern macroeconomics, but you wouldn't know it by taking a college course in macroeconomics or by reading a modern college macroeconomic textbook......... what is represented there about Keynes is so far removed from his original writings as to be unrecognizable......... the fact is that almost all of modern macroeconomics was influenced in some way by Keynes, whether people choose to give him credit or not....... this book is a natural progression from a book called Keynes Primer, which was an attempt at a study guide for Keynes "The General Theory of employment, interest and money" .................... what Keynes Primer allowed for is understanding some simple basic truths central to his whole work, understandable in an intuitive fashion.......... now with this book it is time to integrate these concepts with what is taught in modern macroeconomics to see what may need modification and how....... the format of this book is to review chapter by chapter the pertinent concepts as presented in a college textbook intended for an intermediate macroeconomics course......... these concepts are reviewed in light of the material in Keynes primer and the general theory and comments are made as to how they need to be modified to be consistent with the Keynes work............ some people think Keynes work has been disproven ............ it has not been disproven, not even close.......... how can you disprove something you never properly understood in the first place............. read this and you will have a real good foothold on what Keynes actually discovered ......this is the third of 5 books in this series
