About this product
Product Information
How risk taking transforms our body chemistry, driving us to extremes of euphoria and risky behavior--or stress and depression In this eye-opening book, Coates--a former Wall Street trader and now a world-class neuroscientist--describes the role our biology plays in our risk-taking behavior. Coates brings his research to life by telling a story of fictional traders who get caught up in a bubble and then a crash. As these traders place their bets and live with the results, Coates looks inside their bodies to describe the physiology driving them into irrational exuberance and then pessimism. The result is a riveting tale and a penetrating insight into how traders'--and indeed all humans'--bodies guide their risk taking, endowing them with fast reactions and gut feelings; but how their biology can also lead them to extremes of euphoria or anxiety and stress, thereby wreaking havoc on the economy. Coates extends his conclusions to all types of high-pressure decision making--from the sports field to the battlefield.

Reviews
Coates...brings an educated, experienced eye to this examination of the biological side of the financial markets...Coates uses concrete examples to make understandable both the financial and neurological complexities that are central to his argument. Well-presented and intriguing., A terrific read--better than any amount of economic analysis because it explains what lies at the root of economic disaster--those biological drivers that cause sane and clever people to make catastrophic decisions. Every banker should be made to read it., A former financial trader, Coates combines his real-world experience and his clinical study of human physiology into a story of Wall Street speculators in action...A provocative challenger to rational-choice views of high finance, Coates makes an exceptionally clear, readable presentation that is bound to influence arguments about the regulation of Wall Street., [A] profoundly unconventional book. It's also so absorbing that I wound up reading it twice...From the first page to the last, Coates challenges deep-seated assumptions., John Coates brings finely honed scientific insight to his insider's look at the world of high-wire high finance to produce a vivid depiction of the minds, brains, and bodies of economic movers and shakers living on the edge., If anyone is qualified to unifythe seemingly disparate subjects of financial markets and neurology, it's JohnCoates... The Hour Between Dog and Wolf is a powerful distillation of his work--and an important step in the ongoingstruggle to free economics from rational-actor theory., It makes intuitive sense thatbiological responses inform the mood of the markets. This book puts flesh onthat idea., A vivid and brilliantly written narrative: by integrating his knowledge of neuroscience with his experience as a Wall Street trader, Coates pulls back the curtain on the physiological mechanisms that prepare some individuals to thrive and others to be devastated by confronting risk., This scintillating treatise...is a provocative and entertaining take on the irrational exuberance--and anxiety--of the modern economy.
