Nassim Nicholas Taleb has devoted his life to immersing himself in problems of luck, randomness, human error, probability, and the philosophy of knowledge. He managed to transform his interests into three successful careers, as a man of letters, businessman-trader-risk manager, and university professor. Although he spends most of his time as a flâneur, meditating in cafés across the planet, he is currently Distinguished Professor at New York University's Polytechnic Institute and Principal of Universa. His books Fooled by Randomness and The Black Swan have been published in 31 languages. He is widely recognized as the foremost thinker on probability and uncertainty. Taleb lives mostly in New York.
A black swan is an event, positive or negative, that is deemed improbable yet causes massive consequences. In this groundbreaking and prophetic book, Taleb shows in a playful way that Black Swan events explain almost everything about our world, and yet we—especially the experts—are blind to them. In this second edition, Taleb has added a new essay, On Robustness and Fragility, which offers tools to navigate and exploit a Black Swan world.

評分(一) 在512汶川大地震后,民间关于“地震预测”的各种质疑和方法,纷纷出笼。而官方地震局和专家则坚守“地震的不可预知性”和“科学性”。双方是各执一词,互不买账。 我们不懂地震的小老百姓,就只好看热闹。看东风压倒西风,还是西风压倒东风。风风不相容? 其实在...

囉嗦,大量篇幅都在抱怨世界如何蠢作者如何英明但不被重視。部分論點走瞭極端。基本觀點:復雜係統(如金融)中的隨機變量常遵從冪律分布,影響極大的事件以雖小但不可忽略的概率齣現(即黑天鵝)。但流行模型往往基於樸素的正態分布假設,故存在緻命盲點。因黑天鵝罕見,即使考慮冪律分布擬閤的模型也難有預測力。作者建議:對影響正麵的黑天鵝盡量激進保證敞口,對負麵的則要極度保守。
评分Thought-provoking indeed.
评分2018.07.10讀完 思考如何應用到Bitoech Investment, mitigate negative black swan and expose to positive black swan
评分現在迴想起來,這本書給我的最大收獲竟然是愛上瞭Horowiz與Rachmaninov,(⑉°з°)-♡ 哈哈哈????
评分Stop looking the gift horse in the mouth-remember that you are a black swan.
