More than a century before Alan Greenspan coined the phrase 'irrational exuberance' to describe the speculative bubble inflating technology stocks, Charles Mackay was recording the history of 'tulipomania', a speculative madness surrounding the value of tulips in the 18th century that was the ruin of many Dutch and English investors. This is only one of the 'extraordinary popular delusions' documented by Mackay in a fascinating study of group psychology. He also describes notorious witch hunts, haunted houses, the Crusades, beliefs in fortune tellers and in the magical power of alchemy, veneration of relics, bogus health cures and health scares, and many other examples of human credulity and flights from reason. This work is a true classic in the study of paranormal beliefs, a funny, shocking, and unbelievable yet true history of human gullibility.
Charles Mackay, L.L.D., was a Scottish journalist in the nineteenth century. He received an honorary law degree from Glasgow University and was a renowned poet and songwriter.
你知道么,几百年前,英格兰股市就有南海泡沫的奔溃,因为盲目吹嘘未来在南美洲收益的童话?几百年之后美国也发生了航空业泡沫、IT泡沫? 你知道么,几百年前,毫无理由荒诞的十字军东征持续了200年,死了几百万人?今天中东每天还在死人,因为什么? 你知道么,占卜术、预言...
评分人不是没有思想的芦苇,可是当人没有独立的思想时是什么样的?那就是两个字“悲剧”。是的,我们人类在历史上有许多的时候就在没有独立思想时发生了灾难。在二战前大多数人们没有独立的思想,便酿成了世界性的金融危机。在德国全民陷入没有独立思想时便成了法西斯主义盛行危害...
评分我们说要理性,实际上是像表达这样一个意思:要做得合理。比如说两个东北人,他看了他一眼,他说,你瞅啥,他说,瞅你咋地,然后两个人找地方唠唠,搞不好,或者就进医院,或者就吃牢饭。非大砍省的人可能会觉得太不理性了,他们觉得这“后果”就因一个眼神引起,不值得。但是...
评分一本社会学和史学著作,不太适合放在经济学领域。 本来以为副标题“非同寻常的大众幻想和群体狂欢”都是讲类似于郁金香泡面一类的事情,没想到是分开的。占卜、炼金、催眠偏于大众幻想,郁金香泡沫、南海公司类似于群体狂欢,但是不论何种类型都透露着个人迷失于群体的表现,个...
评分其实讲的内容也无非就是郁金香风潮那一套,已经在百年间由各种各样的人和事件演绎过了,有out of date的感觉,非专业人士可以一看,但是感觉收获不大。
