More about the book

This is a sceptical history of the internet/stock market boom. The author argues that the dot.com craze wasn't simply a stock market bubble; it was a social and cultural phenomenon driven by broad historical forces. Cassidy explains how these forces combined to produce the buying hysteria that drove the prices of loss-making companies into the stratosphere.
