520 _a"THESE LIGHTLY WRITTEN but seriously conceived vignettes are admirably fair and judicious without being obsequious. Anyone who reads them will learn not only a lot about the world's famous economists, but also a good deal about economics." ROBERT HEILBRONER, Norman Thomas Professor of Economics, New School of Social Research. Great Economists Since Keynes is a companion volume to the acclaimed Great Economists Before Keynes. It presents a stylish, short authoritative statement of each economist's main contri bution to the subject. It is essential reading for anyone wishing to learn more about the great modern economists. What is James Tobin's main contribution? What is Arrow's impossibility theorem? Which economists have made the most significant contribution to rational expectations? These and countless other questions are resolved beautifully in this eloquently written book.
