Sobre este artículo
London: Macmillan and Co., Limited,, 1931. First edition, first impression, of Keynes's first collection of essays, including non-technical discussions of the peace treaty, inflation and deflation, the return to the gold standard, and politics. "Keynes' intensive public activity with respect to the policy discussions of the inter-war period was reflected in the more than three-hundred articles he wrote for the 'highbrow' news magazines of the time... as well as for the popular press. Many of the latter articles were syndicated in newspapers all over the world. A selection from these and similar writings were reissued by Keynes in 1931 under the title Essays in Persuasion. They are marked by a brilliant style, truly the work of a literary craftsman" (New Palgrave). Octavo. Original green cloth, spine lettered in gilt. Tables in the text. Stamp of Times Book Club on rear pastedown. Light bumping and rubbing, faint toning to spine, minor browning to endpapers, edges, and contents: a very good copy. Mattioli 1810; Moggridge A8.1.1.
