Charles Mackay's 'Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds' delves into the origins and consequences of historical speculative manias, analyzing the psychology behind mass delusions. It contrasts these with Jean-Baptiste Say's 'Confusión de Confusiones,' which offers an early perspective on economic theory and speculative bubbles. Both works provide insights into the nature of crowd behavior and the economic phenomena that arise from it.
