WHY STOCK MARKETS CRASH

"A professor of geophysics gives a very different perspective, informed by his scientific training, on the stock market. I am sure that his view will be highly controversial, but the book is fascinating, and mind-expanding, reading."--Robert Shiller, author of "Irrational Exuberance"
""Why Stock Markets Crash "addresses a current and enduring concern for all investors, the seemingly mysterious twists and turns the markets take.
