THE WISDOM OF CROWDS
James Surowiecki
Anchor Books, 2005

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
The reader will understand studies and principles from social psychology that support the theory that large groups of people are more likely to reach correct conclusions than an elite few.

This book has implications for how knowledge is advanced, how economies are organized, and how people live their daily lives.

James Surowiecki is a staff writer at The New Yorker, where he writes the business column, “The Financial Page.” His work has appeared in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Artforum, Wired, and Slate.
