This reassessment of J. M. Keynes's The General Theory of Employment, Interest andMoney results from the author's experience in using Keynes's book as the core of her macroeconomicscourses for undergraduates. It is intended to encourage others to bring the General Theory back intomainstream teaching, because it "gives a far richer understanding of the structure of macroeconomicinteractions and methods of analysing them than much of what has been written since."Victoria Chickis Lecturer in Economics at University College, London.
