Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. "Essays on John Maynard Keynes" was edited by Milo Keynes , who was the nephew of John Maynard Keynes. This copy of the book , printed in 1980 by Cambridge University Press, is the second paperback printing, and the fifth printing overall. **************************************** The following is excerpted from the book's write-up on its rear cover : "The Twenty eight essays in this fascinating and important collection may be divided into three groups : : the first is concerned with Keynes's early life and his relations with 'Bloomsbury', and Cambridge; the second with his major contributions to economics and to British and world affairs (written for the general reader as well as economists); the third deals with various aspects of his life and work which reveal the immense range of his intellectual and other interests. The book is, in effect, a biography by many authors." Said the "New Humanist" in a review : " Much has been written about the importance of Keynes's contribution to modern economic thinking, but little about Keynes the man. This enormously interesting collection of essays redresses the balance. We get from them a many-sided view of Keynes - as lover, art and book collector, biographer, philosopher ." ************************************* TITLE : Essays on John Maynard Keynes / AUTHORS : Numerous / EDITOR : Milo Keynes / IMPRINT : Cambridge University Press / PLACE : Cambridge, England / DATE : (1980) / EDITION : Second paperback printing; overall 5th printing. / STATUS : Still available from Cambridge University for $54.99 , paperback format. / PHYSICAL DETAILS : Contains 16 illustrations, including a color frontispiece (portrait of Lord Keynes and his wife Lydia Lopokova); has a Preface, a Chronology, a Bibliography, notes, and an index. ******************************************* CONDITION - VERY GOOD - This is a previously owned book that remains clean and attractive, with the following particulars noted :: EXTERIOR -- Spine has reading creases; nicking to edges; mild surface rub - basically clean and presentable.Text-block edges clean. / BINDING -- The book has obviously been read, but remains solid, with no detached or loose leaves. / INTERIOR -- The previous owners penned a joint signature on the first page, and a heraldic family bookplate on the inside of the front cover; I spotted a few, scattered, minute pencil erasures which impart little, if any, effect. Basically the interior is clean and presentable .

Lydia Lopokova, Baroness Keynes (1892 1981) was a famous Russian ballerina during the early 20th century. She is known also as Lady Keynes, the wife of the economist John Maynard Keynes. Lydia trained at the Imperial Ballet School, where she almost immediately became a star pupil. "She responded instinctively to the expressive choreography of Mikhail Fokine, his rebellion against the stiff academicism of the classical style, and her chance came when she was chosen to join the Ballets Russes. on their European tour in 1910. Diaghilev knocked a year off her age and promoted her as a child star." She stayed with the ballet only briefly, knowing that she had little future in Russia ("she was the wrong size and shape for the grand roles and there were already plenty of prima ballerinas in St. Petersburg"), she accepted an American offer of £16,000 per month and after the summer tour left for the United States, where she remained for six years, enjoying tremendous success and legally changing her name to Lopokova in April 1914. In the midst of a wartime European tour, she had an on-off affair with Igor Stravinsky, who was married." In America she was basically a novelty act, and she rejoined Diaghilev in 1916, dancing with the Ballets Russes, and her former partner Vaslav Nijinsky, in New York and later in London. In 1921, Diaghilev staged a lavish production of The Sleeping Beauty in which Lopokova danced the Lilac Fairy and Princess Aurora. The production was a flop, but it brought her to the attention of John Maynard Keynes. He "sat every night in the stalls, enchanted by Lydia as the Lilac Fairy casting spells over the cradle." The two soon became lovers, and they were married in 1925.

The book discusses the genetics of single-gene and complex dieases, human cancer genetics, genetic linkage, and natural selection in human populations.
