Description

Edward R. Dewey, as chief economist in the Hoover Administration, was tasked by President Hoover to figure out what caused the 1929 stock market crash and ensuing depression. In the course of his extensive investigations, he became convinced that something important was missing from our collective knowledge of how economies and societies work - a working knowledge of cycles. He was joined in his quest to establish a "science of cycles" by other leaders of his time, including Ivy League scientists, Smithsonian Directors, Industrial CEOs, Ambassadors, and political leaders. First published in 1971, Cycles: The Mysterious Forces that Trigger Events was Dewey's answer to President Hoover's question and to many more questions which had arisen from his decades of research. Are there cycles in nature In war On Wall Street In the universe In you Are cycles across different phenomena aligned with each other Find out in this compelling book!

Author Bio

Edward R. Dewey founded the Foundation for the Study of Cycles in 1941. He was Chief Economic Analyst for the Department of Commerce carrying out an assignment from President Herbert Hoover to identify the causes of the Great Depression when he stumbled upon cycles. He found that when certain cycles came together at the same time it coincided with significantly large dips in the market. In his important paper, The Case for Cycles (July 1967), Dewey writes, "There is considerable evidence . that there are natural environmental forces that alternately stimulate and depress mankind in the mass."
