Assoc for Scottish Literature“Charles Mackay's book … enjoys extraordinarily high renown in the financial industry and among the press and the public. It also has an extraordinarily low reputation among historians. […] Mackay’s story provides another example of a renowned expert on bubbles who decides that ‘this time is different.’”—Andrew Odlyzko, SSRN, 26 Feb 2011 2/3<a href="https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1927396" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1927396</a><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Scottish" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Scottish</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/literature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#literature</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/19thcentury" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#19thcentury</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Victorian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Victorian</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/psychology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#psychology</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/masspsychology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#masspsychology</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/economics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#economics</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/stockmarket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#stockmarket</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/bubbles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bubbles</a>

Assoc for Scottish Literature“its power as a starter in crowd psychology comes from Mackay’s insistence on humanising the follies he describes.
