This fascinating book brings together and examines all aspects of
the life and work of one of the most influential thinkers of the
last century, John Maynard Keynes, whose theses are still hotly
debated. It combines, in an accessible, unique and cohesive manner,
analytical, biographical and contextual elements from a variety of
perspectives. Gilles Dostaler studies in detail the battles that
Keynes led on various fronts - politics, philosophy, art, and of
course economics - in the pursuit of a single and lifelong goal: to
radically transform society to create a better world, a world
pacified and freed from the neurotic pursuit of financial wealth
and economic rentability, with art at its pinnacle. Containing
detailed presentations of the Bloomsbury group and the political
history of Great Britain, Keynes and his Battles is an essential
reference to this most important of 20th century figures whose
central message remains as topical today as it ever was. The study
also contains a unique chronology of Keynes's life and historical
events, portraits of Keynes by his friends and contemporaries, as
well as a full bibliography of all his books, chapters contributed
to books, journal articles and reviews. Scholars, students and
researchers of economics, history of economic thought, political
science, sociology, history, philosophy and the history of arts
will find this an absorbing and revealing work. The book should
also interest journalists, decision makers in society and all those
who are preoccupied by the problems of our time.
