Same As Ever (Tamil)

If you could travel 500 years into the past or the future, almost everything would look unfamiliar. The technology, the medicine, the political order and even the language would be strange to you. Yet after a few minutes of watching people, you would recognise something: greed and fear, overconfidence that blinds, and risk and jealousy that sway decisions, just as they do now.

Morgan Housel, author of The Psychology of Money, builds Same as Ever around that idea. He takes the reader on a tour of history's pivotal moments and the human behaviour behind them, from the creation of the first nuclear weapons to the founding of Amazon, and from T.E. Lawrence to Jack Welch. The stories deal with risk, opportunity and what it means to live a good life.

Housel's argument is that the future is full of surprises nobody can predict, so it pays to focus on what stays constant. Learning to tell the lasting patterns from the noise can help you make decisions with more confidence, whatever comes next. This is the Tamil edition from Jaico Publishing House.
