The Art of Contrary Thinking by Humphrey B Neill
Distributed by the University of Nebraska Press for Caxton PressWhen everybody thinks alike, everyone is likely to be wrong. The ten words quoted above are, according to Humphrey B. Neill, a potent factor behind the economic booms and busts that blight our civilization. The Mississippi Bubble, Holland's incredible Tulipmania and the New York stock market crash of 1929 are historic examples of disasters magnified and hastened by the pressure of mass opinion. Neill describes these occurrences in detail and tells the reader how to avoid and recognize the dangers that following the pack can pose to the discerning investor.
Humphrey B. Neill (1977) spent his life observing and writing about the folly of group thinking that is all too prevalent throughout our society. His Theory of Contrary Opinion - first described in the best selling The Art of Contrary Opinion (Caxton Press, 1968) has inspired and guided investors and observers of society for more than four decades.
