具体描述
In 1630s' Holland thousands of people, from the wealthiest merchants to the lowest street traders, were caught up in a frenzy of buying and selling. The object of the speculation was not oil or gold, but the tulip, a delicate and exotic bloom that had just arrived from the east. Over three years, rare tulip bulbs changed hands for sums that would have bought a house in Amsterdam: a single bulb could sell for more than 300,000 at today's prices. Fortunes were made overnight, but then lost when, within a year, the market collapsed. Mike Dash recreates this bizarre episode in European history, separating myth from reality. He traces the hysterical boom and devastating bust, bringing to life a colourful cast of characters, and beautifully evoking Holland's Golden Age.

评分人常常会因为各种原因陷入集体狂热：宗教、政治、领袖（无论政治家还是娱乐明星），但最经常令他们着迷的，毕竟还是金钱。就此而言，像17世纪的荷兰人对郁金香的迷恋那样为一种花卉而举国若狂，乍看起来着实令人费解，不过花本身仅是表象与象征，其背后仍然是金钱的魔力。 如今...
