The Pursuit of Justice is a realistic yet hopeful analysis of how the law works in practice rather than in theory. The multi-chapter discussion recognizes that decision makers in the law - judges, lawyers, juries, police, forensic experts and more - respond systematically to the incentive structures with which they are confronted.

Money is an important instrument of calculation: as a unit of account and means of payment, it serves the purpose of exchange. Yet, it is increasingly becoming itself an object of exchange and calculation on financial markets, which tend less to the production and exchange of real goods. The question therefore is: has the economy lost its measure?

Keynes Betrayed The General Theory, the Rate of Interest and Keynesian Economics
David Laidler’s Contributions to Economics Edited by Robert Leeson, Associate Professor of Economics, Murdoch University, Australia
Geoff Tily, Government Economic Service and HM Treasury
'...such an important book...not merely another book on the history of Keynes’s monetary thought. It provides compelling evidence of where ‘Keynesians’ of all shades have gone wrong and simultaneously provides them with the ammunition to generalize what passes for modern monetary theory and macroeconomics. It enables macroeconomists to put Keynes back into Keynesian economics.’ - Colin Rogers, University of Adelaide, Australia This book argues that Keynesian economists have betrayed Keynes’ theory and policy conclusions, and that the world has been misled about those policies. Keynesians have focused attention on policies for dealing with effects of economic failure as they arise, whereas Keynes was concerned with the cause and then the prevention of economic failure. Contents: Acknowledgements / Introduction / PART I: HISTORY / Monetary Economics and Monetary Policy / JMK and the Fourth Grand Monetary Discussion / The Origins of Keynesian Economics / PART II: THEORY / The Saving-Investment Identity and the Transition to the General Theory / The Theory of Liquidity Preference and Debt Management Policy / The Monetary Theory of Real Activity / PART III: MACROECONOMICS AFTER KEYNES / Keynes’s Response to Keynesian Economics / The Keynesian Counter-Revolution and Thereafter / The General Theory and the ‘Facts of Experience’ / Conclusion / Bibliography October 2010 Paperback

Michael P. Clements, University of Warwick, UK
Financial econometrics is one of the greatest on-going success stories of recent decades, as it has become one of the most active areas of research in econometrics. In this book, Michael Clements presents a clear and logical explanation of the key concepts and ideas of forecasts of economic and financial variables. He shows that forecasts of the single most likely outcome of an economic and financial variable are of limited value. Forecasts that provide more information on the expected likely ranges of outcomes are more relevant. This book provides a comprehensive treatment of the evaluation of different types of forecasts and draws out the parallels between the different approaches. It describes the methods of evaluating these more complex forecasts which provide a fuller description of the range of possible future outcomes. January 2005 Hardback Paperback

Tradition and Change in Post-Keynesian Economics Edited by Jean-François Ponsot, Associate Professor of Economics, University Pierre-mendes-France and Sergio Rossi, Professor of Economics, University of Fribourg, Switzerland
Conflict in the Caucasus
Keith Bain, Formerly Principal Lecturer, Department of Economics, University of East London, UK, and Peter Howells, Department of Economics, University of East London, UK
This book provides cutting-edge material elaborating on monetary circuit theory and postKeynesian monetary economics. It contributes to a new approach to monetary analysis, which provides original insights into the complex fields of money, banking, and finance.
'The current financial crisis has thrown the inadequacies of much standard analysis, and not least the mechanical multiplier model of money creation, into sharp relief. Never has a text on monetary economics based on a more realistic model in which banks create money been more needed. Bain and Howells focus on monetary policy, and in particular the control of short term interest rates, and introduce monetary theory as a means of understanding how, why and when monetary policy works. This is theory with a purpose.' - Professor Richard Jackman, London School of Economics and Politic Science, UK

HISTORY OF ECONOMIC THOUGHT
Adam Smith
Great Thinkers in Economics Series The famous historian, E.H. Carr once said that in order to understand history it is necessary to understand the historian writing it. The same could be said of economics. Famous economists often remark that specific episodes in their lives, or particular events that took place in their formative years attracted them to economics. This series Great Thinkers in Economics is designed to illuminate the economics of some of the great historical and contemporary economists by exploring the interaction between their lives and work, and the events surrounding them.

Joan Robinson
A Moral Philosopher and His Political Economy
This book presents the authentic Adam Smith and explores his underlying approach and radical thinking, aiming to re-establish his original intentions. The book provides a crucial reminder of how relevant Adam Smith was in his own time, and how relevant he remains as we experience the worldwide spread of opulence today.
Joan Robinson is widely considered to be amongst the greatest economists of the twentieth century. This book provides a comprehensive study of her life and work, examining her role in the making of The General Theory, her critical interest in Marxian economics, her contributions to Labour Party policy and her writings on development, especially China.
