  This volume gives an account of financial scares through history which also provides insights into why market crashes remain a reality. This version draws on examples from 1618 to the present to illustrate the inevitability of crashes and their parallels in nature. It has been updated to incorporate the 1992 Sterling crisis, the Peso devaluation, fluctuations in the bond markets and the Japanese boom and bust of 1988-90.
