Review

“The essential Keynes cannot be sketched in a chart or mechanized, and we are the worse for it. But Robert Skidelsky has done us a service by putting it in a handy book.” – The Times Literary Supplement

A comprehensive discussion of the man and his ideas. Contrary to right wing propaganda, Keynes was not promoting a liberal welfare state -- he was prescribing the salvalation of capitalism when it was falling apart during the depression. Obama's program to recover from the Great Recession was pure Keynes. A good read and more accessible than Keynes' General Theory....

We are grateful to Professor Skidelsky for bringing us a well chosen collection of Keynes' writings. Keynes was a unique, exquisite, perceptive and discriminating stylist. We are given here the full spectrum of his interests and sensibilities, from philosophy to economics to history, to politics. One is also favoured with a concise, useful and insightful introduction and commentary on the life and times of Keynes by Prof Skidelsky who knows Keynes probably better than he knew himself.

This book ,overall, is worth obtaining as long as the buyer understands that it is severely marred by a major error that has been passed down to Skidelsky by way of two ignorant book reviews written by Frank P Ramsey when he was 18 and 22 years old,respectively.Consider the following claim made by Skidelsky:"Any account of Keynesâ€™s contributions to economics must start with his distinctive theory of probability.In his Treatise on Probability (1921), he sought to rescue the ordinary language (or ordinal) use of probability from the statistical (or cardinal) theory of probability. He put forward a logical theory of probability, of which the then dominant frequency theory was a special case. In ordinary life, we will often have enough evidence to say that something is more likely to happen than not, without having enough evidence to say it is three times as likely."Keynes's logical theory of probability is actually an interval valued approach built on George Boole's indeterminate (uncertainty)-determinate(risk ) approach in chapters 16-21 of The Laws of Thought (1854).It is impossible for a frequency theory to be a special case of an ordinal theory. An ordinal theory appears nowhere in the TP, although Keynes's approach easily handles such probabilities .The only reference to ordinal, rank order ,or comparative probability comes when Keynes discusses the work of Johnson. Keynes, in chapter 15 of the TP ,makes it very clear that in ordinary life we use intervals. A purely ordinal theory that can be used only some of the time (This is Ramsey's conclusion about Keynes's theory that Skidelsky simply accepts at face value) would be quite worthless.Skidelsky simply lacks the basic ,fundamental training and skills in logic and mathematics needed to assess Keynes's work in probability. Relying on the reviews of an 18 to 22 year old, who never, ever mentioned or considered the concept of interval valued probability at any time in his life, is fatal.The other selections chosen by Skidelsky are illuminating and would benefit the general reader.
