Product Description

Premium Quality: The most influential book of the past seventy-five years, this is a groundbreaking exploration of everything we know about what we don't know, now with a new section called "On Robustness and Fragility."

Product Design: A black swan is a highly improbable event with three principal characteristics: it is unpredictable; it carries a massive impact; and, after the fact, we concoct an explanation that makes it appear less random, and more predictable, than it was.

User Experience: The astonishing success of Google was a black swan; so was 9/11, and for Nassim Nicholas Taleb, black swans underlie almost everything about our world, from the rise of religions to events in our own personal lives.

Versatile Occasion: Why do we not acknowledge the phenomenon of black swans until after they occur? Part of the answer, according to Taleb, is that humans are ill-equipped to process uncertainty - a theme explored with rigour and wit across 480 pages of this hardcover edition.

Quality Assurance: Nassim Nicholas Taleb has devoted his life to problems of uncertainty, probability, and knowledge, spending nearly two decades as a businessman and quantitative trader before becoming a full-time philosophical essayist and academic researcher, and is currently Distinguished Professor of Risk Engineering at New York University's Polytechnic Institute.
