Klappentext
Until the nineteenth century, risk was a specialized term: it was the commodity exchanged in a marine insurance contract. "Freaks of Fortune" tells how the modern concept of risk emerged in the United States. Born on the high seas, risk migrated inland and became essential to the financial management of an inherently uncertain capitalist future." Jonathan Levy
