The Wave Principle of Human Social Behavior and The New Science of Socionomics

by Robert R. Prechter

Overview

What drives our social mood? Our actions? Our motivations? Can we look into the make-up of the universe and apply it to who we are and what we do? The answers to these questions are to be found in the new science of socionomics. Socionomics evolved from the Wave Principle, a theory of patterns in financial markets. Now Robert Prechter proposes that this very same principle can be applied to our own social and cultural lives. Prechter shows that dominant aspects of our unconscious mentation are characterized by measurable patterns. Those patterns form the building blocks of humankind's social interaction, and in turn, the Wave Principle.

About the Author

Robert Prechter, Jr., is a social theorist and market analyst. He is President of Elliott Wave International (elliottwave.com), a publishing firm serving investors around the world. Prechter has authored 14 books. His Elliott Wave Principle (1978) with A.J. Frost predicted the great bull market. Conquer the Crash (first edition, 2002) forecasted the unprecedented financial meltdowns that followed in 2002 and 2008. He thinks there is one more meltdown to go, by far the biggest yet.
Prechter’s two-book set Socionomics (1999/2003) presents his seminal hypothesis that endogenously regulated waves of social mood determine the character of social actions. His Socionomics Institute (socionomics.net) is dedicated to explaining and applying socionomic theory.

Editorial Reviews

"Learning about socionomics has proven to be one of those rare intellectual epiphanies that results in an absolute change in the direction of my life. So much about the human experience that had mystified me all of my adult life seems so clear now, so understandable – even to the point of being predictable."

"I love this theory. Socionomics is sure to be a primary reference source for quite some time. The volume and value of analysis that Prechter has conducted is something hard to over-appreciate. There should be university courses and degrees in the science of socionomics and perhaps Nobel Prize winners as well. I recommend many readings of the book to appreciate it in depth."

"Congratulations to Robert Prechter for his interesting, insightful and trail-blazing work. Anyone willing to take the time to read this volume will be rewarded with a new understanding of human behavior, markets and events."
