Alas, both the need for a book such as Manias, Panics and Crises, and the scale and coverage of its material, keep on increasing, almost exponentially.

Economics focus Of manias, panics and crashes Jul 17th 2003 From The Economist print edition The work of Charles Kindleberger, who died on July 7th, has never been more pertinent.

The best known and most highly regarded book on financial crises
Financial crises and speculative excess can be traced back to the very beginning of trade and commerce. Since its introduction in 1978, this book has charted and followed this volatile world of financial markets. Charles Kindleberger's brilliant, panoramic history revealed how financial crises follow a nature..more

If you're looking for a colorful, narrative history of financial bubbles, this book is not for you. Kindleberger is bone dry, and his goal is mainly to analyze common features of bubble cycles. Towards that end, he tends to pick a feature, then run through ten or twenty examples of how that feature worked during past bubbles. That leads to a lot of repetition, but by the end of the book, you definitely get a clear sense of how the Minsky model views bubbles. I think that's the reason the book ha..more

Was a bit disappointing,
most of the book is about events that happened more than 100 years ago,
short coverage of the last 80 years.
The book reads like 10 different people wrote parts of it
and didn't know what others were writing.
Some events are covered multiple times,
the south sea bubble has 16 entries, often saying the same thing.
Treasury sec Paulson was called Mr. Bailout in 2 separate parts that read the same.
I totally disagree that Lehmann bro should have been bailed out.
They piled on billio..more

Highly disappointing read. I read the book based on its reputation as the definitive work on extreme economic valuations.
I found a disconcertingly disjointed presentation. The book reads like a random sampling of the author's thoughts. There was not a linear/cohesive presentation of any of the historical bubbles.

This is a classic book in the financial world, but I was somewhat disappointed with it. Kindleberger uses Hyman Minsky's 'anatomy' of financial crises to discuss commonalities between a number of different financial panics from different countries at different times in history. I had been hoping for more of a straightforward narrative description of each crisis, many of which, after all, occurred in unfamiliar settings. But in fact, Kindleberger uses the generic 'crisis anatomy' as the structure..more

A good introductory book to the history of financial cycles, but only for people with some background in economics.
I didn't like the style. Many times it felt like an endless list of historical examples that illustrate an idea. The idea that financial crises across the world are connected is repeated ad nauseam. Lehman Brothers didn't deserve its own chapter.
It doesn't read as a treatise on the economics causes and consequences of financial cycles, panics, etc., and it doesn't read as an econom..more

This book was referred to by another book I've been reading. This copy as gifted to me by my alma mater at an event where Professor Aliber, the co-author of this edition, spoke.
One of the most dense and therefore challenging books I've read. Every paragraph is jammed with facts. I think the book would be better if it had a few graphs and ignored corruption. There's plenty to digest here without getting into Ponzi, Madoff, or Enron. I also think some more perspective on why credit bubbles get in..more

I think it would have been a lot more fun to sit down and talk with Kindleberger about his theories than to read this book. He clearly knew a lot on the subject, and I generally agreed with his ideas, but I found the way the book was organized hard to follow. A case of, 'I'd have done it differently if I was writing it.'

Written by an eminent economic historian, this book outlines what I believe is the standard view of bubbles, crashes and financial panics -- three closely related but not identical topics. The author's account goes something like this:
From time to time the price of some class of assets starts to rise and people get excited. Often there is some good reason for this -- railroads, canals, tech companies and so forth are real productive assets and people realize at some point that they have been pre..more
Interesting book, I would have been able to appreciate it more if I had a better grounding in economic and monetary theory
The data in this book is very rich indeed, but the read was however rather confusing, in my opinion because of the way the author keeps jumping through history and countries without establishing contexts or a timeline for reasons which seemed to me to be meant to justify categories and groupings that to me seemed not very obvious or at least only useful with the perfect 20/20 hindsight vision of the past.
As to his conclusions I have read different views by other authors on some of the panics me..more
I read the 1st edition written in 1977, published 1978. I understand that the book has been updated in later editions, the 6th written in 2006. It was written during the height of the California housing bubble which saw Bay-area studio apartment rent go as high as $1000 per month when 3-bedroom home mortgages elsewhere were running in the $400-$500 range. It is an eerie foreshadowing of the true mania that seized the country in 2004 when the government communicated its intent to effectively free..more

Kindleberger's 'Manias, Panics and Crashes' is a must read for anyone active in the markets. If you want to learn how to identify downcycles early, and to understand their progression and eventual end, look no further than Kindleberger's work.
While other worthy tomes, such as 'History of Financial Disasters in 3 Volumes' cover much of the same material, the original organization of Kindleberger's work is what commends it. He disentangles the narrative of many financial disasters into their compo..more
Anyone who picks up this book hoping it may help make sense of what's going on in the world and the economy would be bitterly disappointed. Majority of the text reads as one long list of historic events that author doesn't even recount, but simply refers to. If you haven't read extensively on the history of the events in question it probably would make very little sense and a rather tedious reading. Moreover, any trace of analysis, opinion and conclusions postponed till the very last chapter and..more

Nov 30, 2015Anthony rated it it was amazing · review of another edition
There have been many attempts to explain the GFC – greed, irrational behaviours, bell curve, derivatives, excessive leverage, failures by rating agencies, regulatory failure, etc, which all can be groups as a demand side shock.
This book artfully presents (or had presented) another factor, excess capital floating around in the world built by the current account surpluses from the economic imbalance since 60’s. This is more of a supply side shock, which no one has control over after the collapse..more

This is not the easiest book to read without some prior knowledge of economic history. That said it is probably the most complete book on the history and causes of economic upheavals from the 17th century to 2010 available to the non-economist.
In particular the authors have identified what they call the 4 waves of international financial disaster in the last 40 years. Perhaps the most striking conclusion one can draw from their study is how similar the causes of each wave has been. If you take t..more
I enjoyed this book first as an economics student in my undergraduate college course of study. It was read back then as a means to achieving a passing grade on a section test in the economics class. I recently had cause to re-read this book, and was surprised to be able to observe the connections between historical financial crises and economic events in our current economy. With all of the talk about stock market manipulation, derivative fraud, and the imminent collapse of the global economic s..more
The 2000 edition reads like a playbook for the collapse and bailout of of 2008. Both the descriptions and proscriptions of this book, especially its focus on the lender of last resort, seem to be amazingly prescient though it probably just that this iconic text was on the bookshelf of every major player in the fed at the time.
The book is not written for a general audience and some of the econ jargon gave me trouble as a non-specialist but it's not insurmountable. It is a historical and non-quan..more

This book was incredibly dense and difficult to read. While Kindleberger knows his stuff, he fails to organise it in a way that is accessible or comprehensible. There are one or two chapters that are (relatively) easy to follow, but the majority leap from historical crisis to crisis with little in the way of context or explanation. This reads like an academic treatise written exclusively for tenured professors in their ivory towers, rather than a book that I can recommend to a lay person interes..more
Like Samuelson says on the cover, I read it and re-read it and thus had no need to kick myself during the Great Recession. I eschewed real estate and stocks and had my my money in CDs earning 4 to 5.5%. Thank you, Mr. Kindleberger! This is not a page-turner so much as a tome of wisdom: to paraphrase Judge Reinhold in 'Fast Times at Ridgemont High:' Learn it, know it, live it. A major inspiration for my own first book, the upcoming 'The Case of the Cleantech Con Artist: A True Vegas Tale.'
This book has not been updated to explain the current crisis, but it doesn't really need to be. It seems that all crashes have some similar elements. This book is not easy to read, but it is a great analysis of several economic crashes throughout history (from the Holland Tulip crisis to the dot com bust) and explains what happens to the markets and people. Very interesting. Wish I had read it a few years ago.
I read this book as background research for my economics dissertation. As a history of the causes of, and minutia behind, the many financial crashes and scares the financial services industry has served up during its long and torrid history, it is very good. While the subject matter may not appeal to everyone, a book like this provides essential support for the truism that those who ignore history are condemned to repeat it. So, read it.
Mar 30, 2016Oleksandr Zholud rated it really liked it
Quite an unusual book. Instead of taking crises case by case, the author divides them on stages and gives a very detailed description of what happened on this or that stage, what are the similarities. This is a rare example of literary economics. It can be a very nice reference book but reading it is a bit hard

Recommends it for: people who like meaningless laundry lists
gave up listening to an audio version of this text about a third of the way in. it is flabergasting to me how an author could devise such a dull treatment of such a fascinating subject.
okay between this and the movie 1408 i now know to avoid any book/movie recommendations by russ winter.
The classic economic history of capitalisms record of booms and busts. A great antidote to the famous phrase: this time it's different. When you hear this phrase of a boom, sell your shares. Anyway a steady walk through the madness of markets and why free unregulated markets are an insane idea.

Everyone that opens this books has an opportunity to learn something new. While the author's writing style can be boring sometimes, one cannot but praise his efforts to be systematic in his historical description of financial manias and panics.

I was in the last class taught by CPK at Tech and count myself very fortunate - the late professor had an insight we have had to relearn painfully in this last financial crisis: there is no 'normal distribution' in economic affairs. Crises are only to be expected.
This book is presented as if it is for the layman, but it really isn't. If you aren't an economist or an investment banker, you should only attempt reading this if you have a stimulant addiction.

Booms, bubbles and crashes of various asset markets starting with the tullips in Holland. Humans never change and never learn.

“This book is an essay in what is derogatorily called 'literary economics,' as opposed to mathematical economics, econometrics, or (embracing them both) the 'new economic history.' A man does what he can, and in the more elegant - one is tempted to say 'fancier' - techniques I am, as one who received his formation in the 1930s, untutored. A colleague has offered to provide a mathematical model to decorate the work. It might be useful to some readers, but not to me. Catastrophe mathematics, dealing with such events as falling off a height, is a new branch of the discipline, I am told, which has yet to demonstrate its rigor or usefulness. I had better wait. Econometricians among my friends tell me that rare events such as panics cannot be dealt with by the normal techniques of regression, but have to be introduced exogenously as 'dummy variables.' The real choice open to me was whether to follow relatively simple statistical procedures, with an abundance of charts and tables, or not. In the event, I decided against it. For those who yearn for numbers, standard series on bank reserves, foreign trade, commodity prices, money supply, security prices, rate of interest, and the like are fairly readily available in the historical statistics.” — 3 likes
