具体描述
This classic survey of crowd psychology offers an illuminating and entertaining look at three grand-scale swindles. Originally published in England in 1841, its remarkable tales of human folly reveal that the hysteria of the Wall Street Crash of 1929 and the junk-bonds frenzy of the 1980s were far from uniquely twentieth-century phenomena.
The first of the financial scandals discussed, "The Mississippi Scheme," concerns a disastrous eighteenth-century plan for the commercial exploitation of the Mississippi valley, where investors were lured by Louisiana's repute as a region of gold and silver mountains. During the same era, thousands of English investors were ruined by "The South-Sea Bubble," a stock exchange based on British trade with the islands of the South Seas and South America. The third episode involves Holland's seventeenth-century "Tulipomania," when people went into debt collecting tulip bulbs — until a sudden depreciation in the bulbs' value rendered them worthless (except as flowers).
Fired by greed and fed by naiveté, these historic investment strategies gone awry retain an irrefutable relevance for modern times. Extraordinary Popular Delusions is essential and enthralling reading for investors as well as students of history, psychology, and human nature.

评分不足300的时间，在一个又一个疯狂的事件面前，除了看清人性的本质，其它的一切似乎多余。在我们经常接受的教化中，理性、公平、善良一直是核心价值观。看过这本书后，不禁在反思，人性纠究是善还是恶？其实，一切的背后还是知识与人性。缺少常识的大众一定的愚昧的，在利益的诱...
评分一直都有个困惑：今天花明天的钱，明天的钱到底是从哪里来？现在才恍悟，这貌似时髦的消费方式，其实就是一个骗局。根本就没有神马明天的钱，明天尚未到来，明天的钱怎么会提前到达呢？！只是花了别人今天的钱而已。要是以米国来说明这个问题，就再简单不过了。米国人民最是倡...
