Part 1: History and Decision -- Chapter 1: How My Life and Work have been Influenced by J.M. Keynes and F.H. Knight: Introduction and Summary -- Chapter 2: On the Economics of Risk and Uncertainty:A Historical Perspective -- Chapter 3: J.M. Keynes on Probability versus F.H. Knight on Uncertainty: Reflections on the Miracle Year of 1921 -- Chapter 4: Daniel Ellsberg on J.M. Keynes and F.H. Knight: Risk, Ambiguity, and Uncertainty -- Part 2: Market and Application -- Chapter 5: Involuntary Unemployment versus Involuntary Employment: J.M. Keynes and Beyond -- Chapter 6: Frank H. Knight on Uncertainty and Profit: Manager versus Entrepreneur -- Chapter 7: Frank Knight on Market Thinking: Reflections on the Logic and Ethics of the Capitalist Economy -- Chapter 8: An Application to Nuclear Power Generation: From Daniel Bernoulli to J.M. Keynes and F. H. Knight.

This book critically discusses and systematically compares J.M. Keynes and F. H. Knight, two giants in the history of economic thought. In 1921 they both published apparently similar books on risk, probability, and uncertainty. However, while Knight's contribution on risk and uncertainty is now well recognized, Keynes's work on probability and uncertainty has been somewhat ignored in the shadow of his more famous The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money (1936). Focusing on an earlier yet equally important volume by Keynes, A Treatise on Probability (1921), this book sheds a light on his outstanding ideas and the lasting influence on his later works, including The General Theory. There are few books that systematically discuss Keynes and Knight, although there are remarkable comparisons between Keynes's concept of probability and uncertainty and Knight's distinction between a measurable risk and a non-measurable uncertainty. This timely book unifies Keynes and Knight into a new, comprehensive approach to a very complex human behavior.
