The Oxford Handbook of Post-Keynesian Economics, edited by Geoff Harcourt and Peter Kriesle? * prominent members of the 'post-Keynesian' schoo?contains everything about the development of this field, up to the present day, that anyone could think to ask. There are contributions from across the spectrum of self-identified post-Keynesians, including many very well-known scholars in addition to younger, up-and-coming writers. A central theme is the correct place of post-Keynesianism within the broader tradition of economic thought, going back to the classics. Keynes thought that with the publication of his General Theory 'the Ricardian foundations of Marxism will be swept away,' but they don't seem to have been so far.John Smithin, Professor of Economics, Department of Economics and the Schulich School of Business, York University, Toronto *
