An idiosyncratically brilliant new book (Sunday Telegraph )
A fascinating study of how we are regularly taken for suckers by the unexpected (Guardian )
Like the conversation of a raconteur ... hugely enjoyable - compelling (Financial Times )
Confirms his status as a guru for every would-be Damien Hirst, George Soros and aspirant despot (Sunday Times )
In the tradition of The Wisdom of Crowds and The Tipping Point (Time )
John Kay, Financial Times
`Hugely enjoyable - compelling'
