BOOK REVIEW
Tarnished 'truth'
The New Paradigm for Financial Markets by George Soros
Reviewed by Nicholas Kiersey

The root of Soros's complaint is just this: while the methods of natural science may be appropriate for studying the stuff of the natural world, such as nuclear physics, they often produce misleading results when applied to realm of human affairs. For the study of human life is confounded by the dilemma of "interference reflexivity". That is, because students of human affairs are also participants in the ongoing processes which they are trying to study they can never completely remove their preconceived prejudices from their analysis.
