Cycles: The Science of Prediction is a book written by Edward R. Dewey, which delves into the concept of cycles and their role in predicting future events. The author argues that cycles are a fundamental aspect of nature and can be found in everything from the movements of planets to the behavior of humans. Dewey explores the history of cycle theory and its various applications, including in fields such as economics, politics, and medicine. He also provides a detailed analysis of the methods used to identify and measure cycles, including the use of statistical analysis and mathematical models. Throughout the book, Dewey emphasizes the importance of understanding cycles in order to make accurate predictions about the future. He provides numerous examples of successful predictions made using cycle theory, as well as instances where the failure to recognize cycles led to disastrous consequences. Overall, Cycles: The Science of Prediction is a comprehensive guide to the study of cycles and their potential applications in a wide range of fields. It is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the underlying patterns and trends that shape our world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

In 1947 Edward R. Dewey and Edwin F. Dakin published their book Cycles: The Science of Prediction which argued the United States economy was driven by four cycles of different length. Dewey devoted his life to the study of cycles, claiming that "everything that has been studied has been found to have cycles present." He carried out extensive studies of cyclicity in economic, geological, biological, sociology, physical sciences and other disciplines. As a result of his research, Dewey asserted that seemingly unrelated time series often had similar cycles periods present and that when they did the phase of these cycles was mostly very similar (cycle synchrony). He also said that there were many cycles with periods that were related by powers or products of 2 and 3. Dewey understood his cycle theory to be capable of understanding what the market is going to do and of predicting what may come.
