Memoirs of Extraordinary Popular DelusionsandThe Madness of CrowdsBy Charles MackayExtraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds is a history of popular folly by Scottish journalist Charles Mackay, first published in 1841. The book chronicles its subjects in three parts: National Delusions, Peculiar Follies, and Philosophical Delusions. MacKay was an accomplished teller of stories, though he wrote in a journalistic and somewhat sensational style.The subjects of Mackays debunking include alchemy, crusades, duels, economic bubbles, fortune-telling, haunted houses, the influence of politics and religion on the shapes of beards and hair, magnetisers (influence of imagination in curing disease), murder through poisoning, prophecies, popular admiration of great thieves, popular follies of great cities, and relics. Present-day writers on economics, such as Michael Lewis and Andrew Tobias, laud the three chapters on economic bubbles. Scientist and astronomer Carl Sagan mentioned the book in his own discussion about pseudoscience, popular delusions, and hoaxes.In later editions Mackay added a footnote referencing the Railway Mania of the 1840s as another popular delusion, of importance at least comparable with the South Sea Bubble. Mathematician Andrew Odlyzko has pointed out, in a published lecture, that Mackay himself played a role in this economic bubble; as leader writer in the Glasgow Argus, Mackay wrote on 2 October 1845: There is no reason whatever to fear a crash.CONTENTSNATIONAL DELUSIONS.THE MISSISSIPPI SCHEMETHE SOUTH SEA BUBBLELIST OF BUBBLES.THE TULIPOMANIA.RELICS.MODERN PROPHECIES.POPULAR ADMIRATION FOR GREAT THIEVES.INFLUENCE OF POLITICS AND RELIGION ON THE HAIR AND BEARD.DUELS AND ORDEALSTHE LOVE OF THE MARVELLOUS AND THE DISBELIEF OF THE TRUE.POPULAR FOLLIES IN GREAT CITIESTHE O.P.
