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 评分因为拥有理性，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...
评分缺乏思辨能力的狂热群体，会为了一个口号，一次没有证实的期望或者缺乏逻辑的说服而奋不顾身，金融界已经无数次证明这一点。 99年黄子华说:“当师奶变成大佬，凶兆！”，巴菲特更有一句名言:“当别人恐惧的时候我贪婪，当别人贪婪的时候我恐惧”，说的无非都是一个简单的道理—...
