Setting the record straight on A history of Post Keynesian economics

In A History of Post Keynesian Economics Since 1936, John King has written an excellent historian's view of the development of Post Keynesian economics. The author of this paper has actually lived through the development of Post Keynesian economics from its beginning in the 1950s. Accordingly, the paper corrects some inaccurate historical details presented by King. More importantly, the paper provides a significantly different interpretation of many of the historical episodes discussed by King. Finally, the paper suggests what the future of Post Keynesian economics will be.
