内容简介：

This collection, by an economist who participated in many of the events
described, sketches the more important economic developments from the
end of the Second World War to the early 1980s. In so doing, the work
brings together for the first time a series of papers which were produced by
Alec Cairncross during this period.

The topics covered include:
• economic development in the immediate postwar period, including some
long-neglected issues, such as the role of economists in the war-time
government of Britain;
• sterling crises and devaluation during the 1960s and 1970s;
• the wider view and long-term issues involved, including a review of
some of the economic ideas that have influenced British governments
since the war.

The importance of economic history as an intellectual discipline is central
and sets the context for the entire book. The work will be a valuable guide
for all those seeking to understand the course of economics post-1945.
