      abstract = {The ideas of John Maynard Keynes inspired the New Deal and  helped rebuild world economies after World War II--and were  later dismissed as "depression economics." Then came the  great meltdown of 2008. Market forces that the world relied  on suddenly failed to self-correct--and Keynes's doctrine  of corrective action in an imperfect world became more  relevant than ever. Keynes was not a traditional economist:  he was a polemicist, an iconoclastic public intellectual, a  peer of the realm, and a political operative, as well as an  openly homosexual bohemian who befriended Virginia Woolf  and E. M. Forster. Here, historian Peter Clarke provides a  timely accounting of Keynes's life and work, bringing his  genius and skepticism alive for an era fraught with  economic difficulties that he surely would have relished  solving.--From publisher description.},
