Universal Man: The Seven Lives of John Maynard Keynes | |
From the bestselling and award-winning author of ‘An English Affair’, a dazzlingly original thematic biography which throws fresh light on the greatest economist of the twentieth century. John Maynard Keynes is the man who saved Britain from financial crisis not once but twice – over the course of two World Wars. He remains a highly influential figure, nearly 70 years after his death. But who was he? In this entertaining biography, Richard Davenport-Hines gives us the man behind the economics: the connoisseur, intellectual, public official and statesman who was equally at ease socialising with the Bloomsbury Group as he was persuading prime ministers and presidents. By exploring the desires and experiences that made Keynes think as he did, Davenport-Hines reveals the aesthetic basis of Keynesian economics, and explores why the ideas of this Great Briton continue to resonate so powerfully today.

This is the first biography to bring Keynes the man to life. Skidelsky's mammoth work is compendious but a plodding affair. I am most grateful to Mr Daveneport-Hines and find myself wanting more.
Before I read this book I had some knowledge of Keynes's life, his successful record as an academic, the impact of his books and his role in setting up the post war economic system. I really enjoyed this more rounded description of his life, personality, and the genius with which he argued his many political and economic proposals against often strident opposition. A remarkable man and a very enjoyable book to read.
very comprehensive biography of the the various dimensions of Keynes. The structure of the book is unusual for a biography but very effective
an interesting read about the world's most famous economist and the variety in his life.
