Description
Mackay documents the economic bubbles, witch hunts, and mass delusions that seized entire societies across centuries, arguing that collective madness follows predictable psychological patterns. The book remains startlingly relevant because it proves that crowds repeating the same mistakes across different eras suggests something structural about human reasoning under social pressure.
