Black Swan

by Nassim Nicholas Taleb

2010

This seminal work challenges our assumptions about predictability and probability, arguing that the most significant events in history are those that defy expectation. Taleb introduces the concept of the "black swan"—a rare, high-impact occurrence that we later rationalize as foreseeable. Through engaging anecdotes and sharp analysis, he explains why we consistently underestimate the power of the improbable and offers a new essay on building resilience against unforeseen shocks. Anyone interested in understanding the forces that truly shape our world, from finance to personal decisions, will find this a thought-provoking read.
