DESCRIPTION:In his book "Mrs Thatcher's Economic Experiment" W
 illiam Keegan won acclaim (even from critics) for 
 the virulence of his attack on the government's mo
 netarist policies of the early 1980s. These\, in h
 is opinion\, produced an unnecessarily severe rece
 ssion and much social damage. His new book\, "Mr O
 sborne's Economic Experiment " is a conscious echo
  of that earlier work. Keegan believes that\, alth
 ough the circumstances are different\, there are p
 arallels in the way that unnecessarily deflationar
 y policies aggravated the recession that was initi
 ally brought on by the financial crisis\,and have 
 caused needless social hardship. William Keegan ha
 s been the Senior Economics Commentator of The Obs
 erver for many years\, having previously worked at
  the Bank of England and the Financial Times.
