<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>2017 Reprint of 1852 Edition. Being selections from <em>Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds. </em><strong>Mackay's work, first published in 1841, chronicles the various fallacies and delusions that have afflicted human thinking during the modern period. Though the scope of the first edition was wide ranging--including alchemy, fortune-telling, haunted houses and other forms of philosophical delusion--the present editions reprints only those portions of the original work that pertain to economic bubbles. Present-day writers on economics, such as Michael Lewis and Andrew Tobias, laud Mackay's three chapters on the Tulipomania, the South Sea Bubble, and on the Mississippi Scheme.</strong></p>
