The author describes the origins of financial speculation in ancient Rome and chronicles its revival in the modern world : from the Dutch tulip mania of the 1630s through to the day-traders of the Information Age. Drawing on the activities of individuals ranging from Daniel Defoe to Michael Milken, the author shows how the impulses shaping speculative behavior throughout history remain unchanged.
