A compelling account of how crowd dynamics, or social avalanches, are central to cities and financial markets. Just as urban inhabitants are prone to being caught up in the city's flux, the same dynamic can cause traders on financial exchanges and even the algorithms of present-day financial markets to be captured by the maelstrom of the market.
