The Pit and the Pendulum: Menagerie of Speculative Follies; Hedge Fund Rare

Description: The Pit & The Pendulum is the colourful story of the manias, panics and speculative follies that have buffeted markets throughout history and uses evidence from medieval Florence to contemporary Wall Street to show that investors have not always been the cool, rational agents supposed by popular theories of market efficiency. It attempts to illustrate how investors' moods have swung between blithe optimism and brooding pessimism, complicated by the raw emotions of greed and fear. This attractive book provides a lively introduction to the personalities behind 700 years of financial exuberance and despair.
