| Meer info | Patterns in the Dark is that rare book that offers an entirely new perspective on an issue of ongoing concern to investors: the unpredictability of financial markets. In this groundbreaking work, leading investment strategist and authority on chaos theory Edgar\nPeters makes accessible ways of understanding market behavior that until now were\nknown only to specialists. In a lucid and engaging style, Peters explains how processes\nwith a large number of independent agents, such as free markets, can spontaneously\norganize themselves into a coherent system. He draws on the work of the Austrian school\nof economics and complexity theory to show how free markets are by their nature\ncontinually evolving complex systems that require uncertainty to operate successfully.\nUsing everyday examples, Peters shows how complex systems use uncertainty to adapt to\nchanges in their environment and to absorb unexpected shocks. As proof, he cites\ninstructive examples of how rash or heavy handed attempts to eliminate uncertainty in\nmarkets have invariably led to disaster. Patterns in the Dark draws on a broad range of\nhuman knowledge and experience to clarify the behavior of a system that now operates on\na global, 24 hour, and thoroughly interconnected basis. Peters illuminates the complex\noperation of the marketplace by including keen observations drawn from science,\nmathematics, and artistic creation as well as economics. His models include the social\nvision of the Austrian economists, Darwinian ideas of evolution, the laws of physics, and\nthe creative risks of the artist. His meditations on financial markets weigh the effects of\nlimitations vs. rules, risk vs. uncertainty, and order vs. chaos. As a guide to a world\nmarketplace that has become increasingly complex anti uncertain, Patterns in the Dark\noffers the investor a rich source of insight, illumination, and wisdom. |
