History rarely repeats itself exactly-but it often rhymes.

In 'The Calm Before the Storm, ' H.K. Marwood masterfully dissects the peculiar quiet that precedes significant economic transformations: the uneasy optimism, forced confidence, and subtle tension that permeates society when change looms but acknowledgment lags.

By methodically tracing emotional and financial patterns across centuries of booms and busts-from Tulip Mania to the Roaring Twenties, the Dot-Com bubble, the housing crisis, cryptocurrency phenomena, meme stock frenzies, and today's AI-driven speculation-Marwood reveals the recurring psychological cycles that shape not just markets, but cultures and societies.

This incisive work doesn't claim to predict disaster, but instead offers a nuanced study of human behavior, collective belief systems, and the often-overlooked signals that appear when the economic world stands at a crossroads. For investors, economists, historians, and anyone fascinated by the intersection of psychology and finance, this book provides invaluable insight into the human elements driving our economic future.
