Money and Macroeconomics: The Selected Essays of David Laidler (Economists of the Twentieth Century)

This is a collection of David Laidler's most important papers on the "monetarist counter-revolution". It contains both published and unpublished examples of his contribution, detailing material on the demand for money, the economics of inflation, and the "buffer stock" approach to monetary theory. The author has also prepared a personal memoir to accompany this volume which gives an account of his academic career and influences and which places each essay in its original intellectual context.
