Paul Offit Reviewed in The NationPaul Offit, chief of infectious diseases and the director of the Vaccine Education Center at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, has written a new book explaining how the anti-vaccine movement became powerful enough to drown out the real science behind autism research. The book is titled: Autism’s False Prophets: Bad Science, Risky Medicine, and the Search for a Cure and is published by Columbia University Press.An in-depth review of this book appears in the Nation Magazine. Dr. Paul Offit explains how at least eight scientific studies have shown that there is no link between vaccines and autism, but that thousands of Americans continue to believe that the tiny quantities of ethylmercury in the vaccine preservative thimerosal cause autism. (Thimerosal was removed from childhood vaccines by 2001, and autism rates have not declined.) Parents skeptical of the effects of vaccines have subjected their children to expensive, sometimes dangerous quack cleansing remedies including laser therapy, sonar depuration, special diets and chelation therapy, in which a child is injected with chemicals that bind to mercury. Why is there such strong skepticism in the face of so much scientific evidence? Paul Offit lays much of the blame at the feet of the mainstream media. Dr. Offit says the media does not adequately investigate the claims of the anti-vaccine advocates before reporting their stories. He says that anti-vaccine believers are also fueled by misleading information that come from non traditional sources such as the internet. To read the new Paul Offit review. ��

This book was chosen by the Financial Times as one of the ten best books ever written on investment - and with good reason - it’s a timeless classic!
A Classic Insight into Crowd Psychology
First published in 1841, Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds is often cited, as the best book ever written about market psychology.
Today, it is one of the most widely read books to warn investors of stock market bubbles and busts. The version published by Wiley also includes Joseph de la Vega’s 1688 classic, Confusion de Confusions - along the same subject lines.
Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds, explores the sometimes hilarious - and sometimes devastating impact of crowd behavior- and trading greed and fear on financial markets.
This book clearly shows us how crowd psychology has never changed - and how greed and fear are always present.
This book gives us three great examples - such as:
. The tulip mania of 1634 - when tulips actually traded at a higher price than gold!
. The South Sea bubble.
. The Mississippi madness.
These three examples confirm that greed and fear have always been the driving forces of financial markets - and furthermore, that being sensible and clever is no defense against the allure of a popular scheme, when big money is being made.
Think we don’t make the same mistakes today? - Think again!
Just think back to the huge interest in, and the price rises and falls during the Dot Com frenzy of speculation in the 1990’s.
Lessons to be learned
The moral of popular manias is - beware of frenzied speculation - wherever it occurs.
When the next stock market bubble comes along, (and it will) investors are advised to recall the fate of investors of an earlier time - and avoid their misfortunes.
Really, all investors should read this book - and critical acclaim for it is almost universal - and here are just a couple of comments:
This is the most important book ever written about crowd psychology and, by extension, about financial markets. A serious student of the markets and even anyone interested in the extremes of human behavior should read this book! - Ron Insana, CNBC.
You will see between its staid lines (written in ye olde English and as ponderable as Buddha’s navel) that, despite what the media says, nothing really important has changed in the financial markets in centuries. - Kenneth L. Fisher, Forbes.
Destructive Emotions
Markets are still driven by the emotions of greed and fear today - just as they were in yesteryear - and this book graphically illustrates the point.
This book covers much more than just the financial markets - it covers a whole gambit of situations, where the crowd makes stupid investments - based on their emotions, rather than logic.
While this is not a book that tells you how to trade - it does illustrate more clearly than any other book, how stupid investors are - when they submit to their emotions.
Stand Away from the Crowd for Financial Success!
This book is essentially a lesson in trading discipline - and how standing aside from the crowd, will make you a successful investor.
Read it - and absorb its timeless wisdom!

As the government debates the future of social security, employers eliminate pension plans and health benefits, and credit history increasingly becomes a hiring factor, it is critical for young people to take charge of their financial future at a very early age, cautions Patrick Lyons, author of Map Your Financial Future: Starting on the Right Path in Your Teens and Twenties (ISBN 978-1-4116-8677-9).
“With traditional safety nets diminishing, financial security in America will be limited to those who started on the right path early,” says Lyons, portfolio manager at NCM Capital Management Group, Inc in North Carolina. “The ones who start early and manage well will cruise through life and retire comfortably while others struggle along. Map Your Financial Future gives youth a strong foundation that will help make their ride through life a smooth one,” he adds.
The book provides a roadmap for young people to understand personal finance in three easy to read sections. Part one covers budgeting and money saving tips; part two explores how to understand credit so it doesn’t become a road block; and part three discusses ways that you can increase your earnings and build your nest egg for retirement. Each chapter also offers a “Just for Teens” section.
Yearly, educational institutions graduate thousands of students armed with degrees ranging from law to physics, however, countless professionals are not equipped with a basic understanding of how to manage their personal finances. According to Nellie Mae, 92 % of college sophomores have at least one credit card, many have four or more, and the average combined credit card and student loan debt among graduating seniors is $20,900. According to a recent NACE salary survey, the average starting salary for college graduates in the 10 most popular majors is just under $36,000 per year.
“Clearly this is an equation for disaster at the beginning of your journey to financial freedom,” says Lyons, who earned a B.S. in Mathematics from Florida A&M University and an M.S. in Management from North Carolina State University. “Many people, young and old, view credit as an extension of their income which starts a downward spiral not easy to recover from.”
Map Your Financial Future is an invaluable resource for parents, teachers, or anyone wishing to improve their financial outlook. “Whether you are just learning about money or interested in credit and investments, this book shows you how to achieve your monetary goals,” says Maceo K. Sloan, Chairman, CEO and CIO, NCM Capital Management Group.
Pre-release copies of Map Your Financial Future are available at http://www.PatrickALyons.com and other online retailers. For phone orders call toll-free, 888-261-1850.
