This book shows how the realistic foundations and stylized facts of Post-Keynesian economics give rise to macroeconomic implications that are different from those of received wisdom with regards to employment, output growth, inflation and monetary theory, and offers an alternative to neoclassical economics and its free-market economic policies.

Rezensionen
Marc Lavoie's superb Introduction to Post-Keynesian Economics will be accessible to students...the book remains highly readable and covers many references for further readings. It will also be extremely valuable for researchers who are not yet familiar with Post-Keynesian methodology, microeconomics, monetary and macroeconomics, and the approaches to distribution and growth of this school of thought.' - Intervention - European Journal of Economics and Economic Policies
