When Markets Go Mad

From the Tulip Mania of seventeenth-century Holland to the online shopping frenzy of the digital age, *When Markets Go Mad* traces humanity’s enduring obsession with chasing what glitters even as reason fades. Blending history with modern culture, it explores a world intoxicated by excess, from extravagant weddings and social media influence to financial legends like Sir Isaac Newton losing fortunes and George Soros reshaping markets, revealing how the desire to own, rise, and outshine remains unchanged across centuries. Set against a backdrop of shifting global realities, tightening borders, and tech empires built by figures like Bezos and Zuckerberg, the book holds up a mirror to a restless age where wealth, vanity, and technology collide, showing that while the faces of frenzy evolve, the madness itself remains deeply and unmistakably human.
