He overturned the orthodoxy that markets were optimally self-regulating, and instead argued for state intervention to ensure full employment and economic stability. This new selection is the first comprehensive single-volume edition of Keynes's writings on economics, philosophy, social theory and policy, including several pieces never before published. Full of irony and wit, they offer a dazzling introduction to a figure whose ideas still have urgent relevance today.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaperback \/ softback | 592 pages | Published April 2015\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GARDNERS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63966581293405,"sku":"9781846148132","price":16.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0978\/3459\/8749\/files\/9781846148132.jpg?v=1774348031","url":"https:\/\/www.thebookmark.ie\/products\/the-essential-keynes","provider":"The Bookmark ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
