Irrational Exuberance, Revised and Expanded Third Edition: A Book Review
![Jese Leos](https://nicksucre.com/author/al-foster.jpg)
Irrational Exuberance, Revised and Expanded Third Edition, is a book by Robert J. Shiller, a Nobel Prize-winning economist. The book examines the history of financial bubbles and argues that they are caused by a combination of psychological and economic factors. Shiller identifies several warning signs of a financial bubble, including rising asset prices, increasing leverage, and a surge in speculative activity. He argues that investors should be aware of these warning signs and avoid investing in assets that are at risk of a bubble.

The book was first published in 2000, just before the dot-com bubble burst. Shiller's warnings about the dangers of investing in overvalued assets were largely ignored at the time, but they have been vindicated in the years since. The book has been praised for its insights into the psychology of financial markets and its ability to predict financial crises.
The third edition of Irrational Exuberance has been updated to include new material on the financial crisis of 2008 and the subsequent recovery. Shiller also discusses the rise of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, and he warns that these assets may be at risk of a bubble.
Irrational Exuberance is an essential read for anyone who wants to understand the history of financial bubbles and how to avoid them. Shiller's insights are invaluable for investors, policymakers, and anyone else who is interested in the financial markets.
