The Hour Between Dog and Wolf: Risk Taking, Gut Feelings and the Biology of Boom and Bust

The Hour Between Dog and Wolf is a groundbreaking book that reveals the biology of risk-taking and its impact on our body chemistry.

Written by a successful Wall Street trader turned Cambridge neuroscientist, this book offers a fascinating look into the physiological factors that drive us to take risks and how they can lead to extreme behaviors such as euphoria or depression.

By exploring the feedback loop between testosterone and success, Coates identifies how men are more susceptible to risk-taking than women, while intense failure leads to a rise in cortisol levels, lowering the appetite for risk across an entire spectrum of decisions.

Through compelling storytelling and real-life examples, this book provides valuable insights into the biology of risk and how it can impact our financial decision-making.

Whether you're a seasoned trader or simply looking to make informed investment decisions, The Hour Between Dog and Wolf is an essential read that will help you understand the hidden forces driving your risky behavior.
