Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds and Confusion de Confusions

by Charles Mackay

This book merges two classic works, Extraordinary Popular Delusions and Confusión de Confusiones, to explore the influence of crowd behavior and market manipulation on financial history. Martin Fridson, a securities analyst, takes readers through historical events like Tulipmania and the South Sea Bubble, offering an engaging and insightful journey into the world of market follies.

Bought and read the book several years ago.One of the few classic books that has been printed for decades about the manias, panics, booms, and busts of financial history.

In this time the financial delusions are very uo to date! This is one of the best classic historian since 17th century

Fascinating-- happening all over again, only 400 years later. Some things never change. Good price, quick, efficient, packed well.
