"Paul Davidson is the keeper of the Keynesian flame. Keynes lives (intellectually), and Davidson is one of the reasons."--Alan S. Blinder, Gordon S. Rentschler Memorial Professor of Economic and Public Affairs, Princeton University "Paul Davidson has persistently attacked conventional economics for having ignored Keynes's emphasis on uncertainty, and the use of money as a store of value, in causing economic crises. In this lucid new book, he exposes the intellectual mistakes which led to the present world economic downturn, and shows how Keynes's ideas can help bring about a 'civilized economic society'."--Robert Skidelsky, author of John Maynard Keynes 1883-1946: Economist, Philosopher, Statesman "Paul Davidson has given us a timely and lucid answer to the important question: What would Keynes have said? He is particularly good on the disastrous condition of the mainstream economics, which ignored Keynes for decades, and is now exposed as having left us wholly unprepared for the crisis at hand."--James K. Galbraith, The University of Texas at Austin, author of "The Predator State: How Conservatives Abandoned the Free Market and Why Liberals Should Too."
