Thomas K. Rymes, ed., Keynes's Lectures, 1932-35: Notes of a
Representative Student, London and Basingstoke: Macmillan, and
Ann Arbor: University of Michigan Press, 1989 (the book that is
listed on Amazon, was reviewed in many academic journals, and is
available in many university libraries), is not the same thing as
Rymes's 1987 photocopied compilation of all the sets of student
notes on Keynes's 1932-1935 lectures that he had managed to find.
As Steve Kates reports, the 1989 volume distills the disparate sets
of notes into a version of the lectures as recorded by one "representative
student."
