Abstract: Abstract ‘…odd little book’ was Dennis Robertson’s own retrospective description of his Banking Policy and the Price Level (BPPL, 1926) when he came to write the Preface to the Kelley Reprint edition of 1949 (Robertson, 1949, p. vii). Why he should have chosen to describe what must be reckoned his most innovative and seminal work in this way was not vouchsafed, and it will be the purpose of this chapter to suggest reasons for which the book might justifiably be considered ‘odd’.
