First published in the early 1990s, the book is not a technical market manual but a historical and analytical meditation on why rational people repeatedly participate in irrational price booms. Galbraith moves through well-known episodes such as Tulip Mania, the Mississippi and South Sea bubbles, the 1929 stock market boom, and later credit-driven excesses to show that these events are not anomalies but recurring features of modern finance. His purpose is to identify the psychological and structural conditions that make euphoria possible, including easy credit, collective optimism, and the tendency to mistake rising prices for proof of sound judgment. The book is brief, accessible, and sharply critical of financial complacency, making it valuable for readers who want a clear framework for recognizing speculative danger rather than a formula for forecasting exact crashes.
