Crazy Book Triggered The Recession?

When the book ‘Eightstorm’ was published in 2007, many people thought it was a great guide to jumpstarting the brain and switching on the idea mode to come up with intriguing thoughts.

A lot of critics said the techniques discussed in the book would tinker with the normal functioning of the human thought process itself.

But no one predicted that some of the techniques discussed in the book where the very same ones that were used by the wall street brains to churn out innovative derivatives and financial products that triggered the global meltdown.

Right from ‘Overturn’ to ‘Interrogation’ and ‘Nuptial’ – almost every technique described in the book has found its toxic equivalent in the financial world.

No one can say with any amount of certainity to what extent ‘Eightstorm’ influenced the biggest financial turmoil in modern history, but if you’d like to know more, you can find it all here.
