Black Swans

Book •
Nassim Nicholas Taleb's "The Black Swan" explores the impact of highly improbable events—'black swans'—on history, finance, and life.

Taleb argues that these unpredictable events have a disproportionate influence, shaping our world in ways we cannot foresee.

He critiques traditional models of risk assessment and prediction, emphasizing the limitations of our ability to anticipate the unexpected.

The book challenges conventional wisdom and encourages a more robust approach to understanding uncertainty.

Its insights have resonated across various fields, prompting a reassessment of risk management and decision-making.
