Why The Many Are Smarter Than The Few And How Collective Wisdom Shapes Business, Economics, Societies And Nations.
'The Wisdom of Crowds' has a deceptively simple and counter-intuitive premise: If you want to make a correct decision or solve a problem, large groups of people are smarter than a few experts.
This is a book that explains in a completely new way how the world really works. It is the biography of an idea that has profound implications for how we run our businesses, how we organize our society, how we structure our political system and how we think about the future.
From everyday examples, Surowiecki draws startling and brilliant conclusions about human society, free markets, scientific research, the environment, and even the value of a democratic form of government. This is a truly eye-opening book for anyone interested in what makes things happen.
