| business and pleasure tent: The Real Price of Everything Michael Lewis, 2011-07-19 In his New York Times bestsellers Liar’s Poker and Moneyball, Michael Lewis gave us an unprecedented look at what goes on behind the scenes on Wall Street. Now he takes us back across the centuries to explore the four classics that created and defined not just Wall Street, but the entire economic system we live under today. Brought together with Lewis’s illuminating editorial commentary, they form an essential reference for any student of economics—in fact, for anyone who wants to understand the market forces and government policies that have shaped our world, and will continue to shape our future. Includes: 1776: The Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith 1798: An Essay on the Principle of Population by Thomas Malthus 1817: Principles of Political Economy and Taxation by David Ricardo 1899: The Theory of the Leisure Class: An Economic Study of Institutions by Thorstein Veblen 1936: The General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money by John Maynard Keynes |
| business and pleasure tent: Extraordinary Popular Delusions Charles Mackay, 2015-10-22 “Today, as in the time of the South Sea Bubble, human nature is drawn like a moth to a flame by the speculative fads of the marketplace. The excitement of new glamour issues in electronics or medical technology and the general euphoria over a rising market can lure even the most experienced investors. Their optimism overcomes their better judgment. They abandon critical analysis of the investment’s fundamental value. Like gamblers in a casino, they play against the odds, paying inflated prices and dreaming of quick profit.” —from the foreword by John Marks Templeton. Mackay’s classic, first published in 1841, studies the psychology of crowds and mass mania throughout history, including accounts of classic scams, grand-scale madness, and deceptions. Some of these include the Mississippi scheme that swept France in 1720, the South Sea Bubble that ruined thousands in England simultaneously, and the tulip mania of Holland when fortunes were made and lost on single tulip bulbs. Other chapters deal with fads and delusions that often spring from good ideas or causes, many of which still have their followers today: alchemy and the philosopher’s stone, the prophecies of Nostradamus, the coming of comets and judgment day, the Rosicrucians, and astrology. Time and again, we can avoid disastrous pitfalls and learn to profit by seeing how history repeats itself. Fascinating, mesmerizing, strikingly strange, and amazingly wise, this book will never be forgotten and cannot be ignored. |

| business and pleasure tent: Extraordinary Popular Delusions, the Money Mani Charles MacKay, 2008-12-01 The finances of the country were in a state of the utmost disorder. A profuse and corrupt monarch, whose profuseness and corruption were imitated by almost every functionary, from the highest to the lowest grade, had brought France to the verge of ruin. The national debt amounted to 3000 millions of livres, the revenue to 145 millions, and the expenses of government to 142 millions per annum: leaving only three millions to pay the interest upon 3000 millions. -from The Mississippi Scheme The savings-and-loan scandals of the 1980s. The dotcom craze of the 1990s. The housing bubble of the 2000s. It may seem as if mass financial insanity is a result of complex global economies and modern high finance, but it's been with us for centuries, as this classic expose of the madness of humanity-particularly as it relates to money-demonstrates in a way that's both disturbing and highly illuminating for those wishing to avoid getting lost in such madness again. This abridged edition of the 1841 classic focuses exclusively on the infamous financial mania that have become bywords when discussing the economic collapses of today: [ the Mississippi Scheme, in which an 18th-century Scottish financier created a stock bubble in France for land in the New World [ the South Sea bubble, the 18th-century stock swindle sometimes called the Enron of England [ the infamous tulip mania that seized Holland in the 1600s These powerful studies of the human relationship to money remain startlingly relevant today... as they are sure to still be centuries from now. Scottish journalist CHARLES MACKAY (1814-1889) held an honorary law degree from Glasgow University, as well as a doctorate in literature. A renowned poet and songwriter, he also authored a Dictionary of Lowland Scotch. |
