General Theory Of Employment , Interest And Money
The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money by John Maynard Keynes is a foundational 1936 economic treatise that revolutionized macroeconomics by introducing concepts like aggregate demand, government intervention, and the role of uncertainty in shaping market cycles.
Critiqued“His piece on protectionism, his call in the general theory to nationalize investment, course, those are some pretty bad recommendations, even though he got some things quite right.”

Prices and production
Discussed“This is in prices and production and other works by Hayek and he's very good on that.”
