Like any book mentioning Hayek (he's generally only known or referenced by the real gold standard loolah hacks) it seems to hold a considerable bias against Keynes (the only one of the two who actually did anything useful) while trying to present itself as objective but still might be worth a gander within that parametre.
If you're looking for books on Keynesian ideas Will Hutton's "The Revolution that never was" and Robert Skidelsky's "Keynes: Return of the Master" are both good reads - in Hutton's case a serious academic overview that deals with classical arguments and explains Keynesian views within that narrative. It also reads easy for a book dealing with such complex perspectives. For Hayek I actually enjoy reading his own works, like "The Road to Serfdom". He was totally bonkers like, but it's still intellectually stimulating and helps grasp the theoretical underpinnings of his philosophy.
