   http://cepa.newschool.edu/het/profiles/keynes.htm
   
   Extractions: John Maynard Keynes is doubtlessly one the most important figures in the entire history of economics. He revolutionized economics with his classic book, The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money (1936). This is generally regarded as probably the most influential social science treatise of the 20th Century, in that it quickly and permanently changed the way the world looked at the economy and the role of government in society. No other single book, before or since, has had quite such an impact. The son of the Cambridge economist and logician John Neville Keynes , John Maynard Keynes was bred in British elite institutions - Eton and then King's College Cambridge. In 1906, he entered the British civil service for a little while, and then returned to Cambridge in 1909. Three life-long connections were made during this time. Firstly, Keynes would remain a fellow of King's College, Cambridge. Secondly, he became the editor of the Economic Journal in 1911, a position he would hold almost until the end of his life. He also fell in with the "Bloomsbury group", a collection of upper-class Edwardian aesthetes such as Virginia Woolf, Clive Bell and Lytton Strachey, which would serve as his "life outside of economics". His first book on Indian currency (1913) was directly related to his experience at the India office. From 1914 to 1918, J.M.K. was called to the UK Treasury to assist with the financing of the British war economy. He excelled at his job and the influence he gained earned him a position with the British delegation to the Versailles Peace Conference in 1918. J.M.K was appalled at the vindictive nature of the peace settlement, and was particularly opposed to the devastating consequences of the heavy "reparations" payments imposed on Germany. He resigned from the conference and published his

   Extractions: John Maynard Keynes (pronounces "Canes") was born into an academic family. His father, John Nevile Keynes, was a lecturer at the University of Cambridge teaching logic and political economy. John Nevile published Formal Logic four months after John Maynard was born. John Maynard's mother, Florence Ada Brown, was a remarkable woman who was a highly successful author, and also a great pioneer in social reform. It is worth commenting at this stage that, although John Maynard Keynes lived to the age of 63, his parents both outlived him. At the age of seven, Keynes entered Perse School Kindergarten but he learnt more from lessons given at home. Two years later he entered St Faith's preparatory school but there was little sign at this stage that he was an exceptional pupil. As time went by he did begin to show more promise, however, and in 1894 he topped the class for the first time and received a prize for mathematics. By 1896 he was described by the headmaster as (see for example [5]):- ... head and shoulders above all the other boys in the school. The following year Keynes sat the entrance examination for Eton and came tenth out of the twenty boys who were accepted into the school in that year. He did, however, come first equal in mathematics.

"The real difficulty in changing any enterprise lies not in developing new ideas, but in escaping from the old ones." "The ideas of economists . . . are more powerful than is commonly understood. Indeed the world is ruled by little else." "I do not know which makes a man more conservativeto know nothing but the present, or nothing but the past."

   http://william-king.www.drexel.edu/top/prin/txt/Intro/Keynes.html
   
   Extractions: John Maynard Keynes was probably the most influential economist of the first half of the twentieth century. The son of a professor of economics, John Neville Keynes, and destined by family connection to be influential in the narrow British university world, Keynes added his own intellectual powers, daring conception, and the courage of his convictions to create an impact that a lesser mind and soul would not have had. Keynes was on the staff of the British delegation that negotiated peace after World War I, but he regarded the terms as the seeds of disaster, resigned in protest, and wrote his criticisms in The Economic Consequences of the Peace (1919), "...bursting" (as Schumpeter wrote) "into international fame when men of equal insight but less courage and men of equal courage but less insight kept silent." Keynes became editor of the Economic Journal , certainly one of the most important of journals of professional work and research in economics then as now. After the disaster of the Great Depression , Keynes was the leading figure in a group of (mostly) younger and very creative economists who attempted to understand and explain the disaster. Borrowing freely from their ideas, Keynes published

   John Maynard Keynes ABOUT JOHN MAYNARD KEYNES 18831946 John Maynard Keynesis unquestionably the major figure in twentieth century economics.  
   http://www.jobsletter.org.nz/jbl04611.htm
   
   Extractions: John Maynard Keynes is unquestionably the major figure in twentieth- century economics. His reputation does not rest solely on the General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money (1936), which initiated the so-called Keynesian Revolution, but also on his other writings, most notably A Treatise on Probability (1921) and A Treatise on Money He lived life to the full, not only as an economist and statesman, but also as a journalist, art collector, bibliophile, and patron of the arts. His criticism of the peace treaty of Versailles (1919) with Germany in The Economic Consequences of the Peace (1919) made him famous overnight and effectively undermined public support for the treaty. During the crises of the 1920s he came increasingly to identify conservative economic policies as the cause of Britain’s economic problems. From this beginning, he developed a new theory of income determination, grounded in the concept of the ‘consumption function’, the ‘liquidity preference theory of interest’, and the inflexibility of money wages. The unemployment crises inspired his two great works

8. Robert Reich On John Maynard Keynes
   John Maynard Keynes His radical idea that governments should spend moneythey don't have may have saved capitalism. By Robert B. Reich  
   http://www.jobsletter.org.nz/art/keynes.htm
   
   Extractions: He hardly seemed cut out to be a workingman’s revolutionary. A Cambridge University don with a flair for making money, a graduate of England’s exclusive Eton prep school, a collector of modem art, the darling of Virginia Woolf and her intellectually avant-garde Bloomsbury Group, the chairman of a life-insurance company, later a director of the Bank of England, married to a ballerina, John Maynard Keynes tall, charming and selfconfident nonetheless transformed the dismal science into a revolutionary engine of social progress. Before Keynes, economists were gloomy naysayers. ‘Nothing can be done,” “Don’t interfere,” “It will never work,” they intoned with Eeyore-like pessimism. But Keynes was an unswerving optimist. " Of course we can lick unemployment! There’s no reason to put up with recessions and depressions! The economic problem is not if we look into the future the permanent problem of the human race ", he wrote (liberally using italics for emphasis).

    Extractions: Keynes is perhaps one of the best known of all economists. This is hardly surprising for two main reasons. The first is that his work was perhaps the most important work that had been done for decades and changed the whole face of post-war economic policy. The second, more flippant reason for his fame is that he is perhaps the only economist to have a whole branch of economics named after him. Though it would be nice to argue that Milton Keynes was named in tribute to the work of two great economists - Milton Friedman and John Maynard Keynes - it would be totally untrue! So Keynes remains the only person to be honoured in this way. His main contribution to the economics debate of the time was in putting together a coherent critique of the existing classical Economic Journal
