He had served briefly from 1906 to 1908 in the India Office in Whitehall; then as the administrative link between the Government of India and the British parliament. He quickly became involved in the problems of the Indian currency and the then important and fascinating issues concerning the gold-exchange standard. He continued to work on these problems, with the encouragement and help of his former colleagues, after he had returned to Cambridge. The book which resulted, and his known mastery of the problems involved, led to Keynes's first major incursion into public life as a member of the (Austen Chamberlain) Royal Commission on Indian Finance and Currency. The important contributions he made to its work are recorded in detail in Volume 15 of this series, which forms a complement to this volume. 606 $aCurrency question$zIndia 606 $aBanks and banking$zIndia 615 0$aCurrency question 615 0$aBanks and banking 676 $a332.4/954 700 $aKeynes$b John Maynard$f1883-1946,$034099 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910573824303321 996 $aCollected writings of John Maynard Keynes$950327 997 $aUNINA
