This new edition, published 70 years after the original, features a new introduction by Paul Krugman which discusses the significance and continued relevance of "The General Theory,"

John Maynard Keynes (Cambridge, 1883 – Sussex, 1946) was an influential British economist whose ideas radically transformed the theory and economic policy of the 20th century. Educated at Eton and the University of Cambridge, he was a member of the Bloomsbury Group and had a distinguished career as a civil servant, academic, and advisor to the British government. His macroeconomic theory laid the foundations for what would later be known as Keynesian economics, advocating state intervention to stabilize the economic cycle.

Among his most recognized works are The Economic Consequences of the Peace (1919), A Revision of the Treaty (1922), A Treatise on Money (1930), and The General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money (1936), the latter considered his magnum opus. Although he did not receive formal awards in his lifetime, his legacy is immense and his influence has endured in the economic policy of numerous countries, especially after the Great Depression and World War II.
