This path-breaking book – written by a leading economist – is certain to create controversy and will lead to a fundamental reassessment of Keynesian economics. Building on his previous work on modern capitalism, Robin Marris has made an important theoretical advance which will have a major impact on the economics profession.

‘Professor Robin Marris, who almost thirty years ago made pioneering contributions on the theory of managerial capitalism, has now written a fascinating and highly unusual book on Keynesian macroeconomics.’
– Amitava Krishna Dutt, Review of Social Economy

‘. . . the book provides many valuable insights for macroeconomists on both sides of the Atlantic.’
– Stephen McCafferty, Journal of Economic Literature

‘. . . a book to learn from, occasionally disagree with, and to enjoy. There need be no fear of treading the weary mill of the contemporary macro-text.’
– Frank Hahn, Cambridge University, UK

‘This book does two great things: it teaches how to use your PC to crank out macroeconomic results based on a micro-level model, and it gives us the accumulated wisdom and reminiscences of one of the cleverest economists of our time.’
– Barbara R. Bergmann, The American University, Washington DC, US

‘A student from Cambridge, MA, is always a bit overwhelmed by the analysis of an erudite student from Cambridge, England, especially when it comes to Keynesian economics. Robin Marris has nicely tied the 1930s developments of imperfect competition into the microfoundations of the 1930s developments of Keynesian macroeconomics, and I find his analysis to be very stimulating, particularly in bringing out distinctive features in the thinking of the two towns.’
– Lawrence R. Klein, University of Pennsylvania, US
