Taking a long view of history, 'Fool's Gold' shows how greed, speculation and delusion have driven men to the edge of reason time and again - and how, if you're not aware of the danger signals, it can still happen today.
This fascinating book takes you on a colourful tour of human ambition, and human frailty. It looks behind the scenes and behind the headlines to explore the psychology - and expose the vested interests - that fan the flames of irrationality and doom so many of us to make the same mistakes.
