The Wave Principle of Human Social Behavior and the New Science of Socionomics (1) (Science of History and Social Prediction) - Hardcover

Críticas

“This is unquestionably a ground-breaking work whose audacious arguments can only be described as stunning and revolutionary in intent and scope. These far-reaching hypotheses are a testament to Prechter’s unequaled ability to weave together emerging evidence into a stunning new model. After reviewing my not inconsiderable library of key political science books, I am unable to find any books that are as sweepingly important and have the same potential to bring about a paradigm shift in the study of social events.”

“I love this theory. Socionomics is sure to be a primary reference source for quite some time. The volume and value of analysis that Prechter has conducted is something hard to over-appreciate. There should be university courses and degrees in the science of socionomics and perhaps Nobel Prize winners as well. I recommend many readings of the book to appreciate it in depth.”

“A masterpiece of intelligence and ingenuity. Socionomics-grounded thinking will take us over a whole new conceptual threshold in understanding how human sociological and psychological processes are embedded in the behavior of large-scale cultural phenomena.”

“With The Wave Principle of Human Social Behavior and the New Science of Socionomics, Prechter has moved Elliott’s work to a higher level.” 
—George Schade; Market Technicians Association
 

Reseña del editor

What drives our social mood? Our actions? Our motivations? Can we look into the make-up of the universe and apply it to who we are and what we do? The answers to these questions are to be found in the new science of socionomics.

Socionomics evolved from the Wave Principle, a theory of patterns in financial markets. Now Robert Prechter proposes that this very same principle can be applied to our own social and cultural lives. Prechter shows that dominant aspects of our unconscious mentation are characterized by measurable patterns. Those patterns form the building blocks of humankind's social interaction, and in turn, the Wave Principle.
