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.

因为拥有理性,所以我们是人类。古希腊哲学家普罗泰戈拉曾经说过:人是万物的尺度。这句话借着文艺复兴时期经典作家们的口,传遍整个世界。 然而,当智慧刚刚醒来时,愚蠢已吃完早餐。 现代社会赋予人类以极大的能量,这就为人类的愚蠢创造了一个更宏大的舞台。只有查尔斯...

看了前三章关于世界金融史上的前三大泡沫经济事件:荷兰的郁金香狂热、法国的密西西比公司泡沫和英国的南海公司泡沫。 荷兰的郁金香狂热背景比较简单。荷兰从土耳其引进郁金香,因为物以稀为贵,大家纷纷购买而导致郁金香价格上升,上升到一种令人发指的地步。 法国的密西西比...
