Manias, Panics and Crashes: A History of Financial Crises (8th Edition)

Every Financial Crisis in History Follows the Same Pattern. Learn It Before the Next One Hits.

Tulip mania. The South Sea Bubble. The Great Depression. The 2008 financial crisis. Bitcoin. Every generation experiences a financial mania — and every generation is convinced that this time is different. It never is.

First published in 1978 and now in its landmark 8th Edition, Manias, Panics and Crashes by Charles P. Kindleberger, Robert Z. Aliber, and Robert N. McCauley is the definitive history of financial crises — a masterwork that has guided investors, economists, and policymakers for nearly five decades.

Updated to include the cryptocurrency bubble and the most recent global financial upheavals, this edition is more relevant than ever.
