Bag om Memories Of extraordinary Popular Delusions vol.- 3

Charles Mackay's Memoirs Of Extraordinary Popular Beliefs, Vol. 3 is a book that looks at mass beliefs and how they have changed history. This book, like the others in the series, talks about a wide range of things, such as religious manias, political fantasies, and financial bubbles. One of the main ideas of the book is that people often believe and act in ways that don't make sense, especially when they are part of a bigger group. Mackay tells in detail about historical events like the French Revolution, the Salem Witch Trials, and the Great Fire of London. He shows how mass panic and delusions affected these events. Memoirs Of Extraordinary Popular Delusions Vol. 3 is an interesting book to read because it shows how the mind works and how powerful beliefs can be.
