Neistota Séria

By the author of the modern classic The Black Swan, this collection of aphorisms and meditations expresses Taleb's view of modern civilization's hubristic side effects--modifying humans to satisfy technology, blaming reality for not fitting economic models, inventing diseases to sell drugs, defining intelligence as what can be tested in a classroom, and convincing people that employment is not slavery
Antifragile: O veciach, ktoré ťažia zo zmätku

Nassim Taleb je bez pochyby jedným z najväčších mysliteľov 21. storočia. Jeho prvý bestseller „Čierna labuť“ ukázal, ako silný vplyv môžu mať na naše životy neočakávané udalosti. Vo svojom druhom bestselleri „Antifragile“ zachádza ešte o mnoho ďalej, keď predstavuje podstatu nestálosti sveta. Na mnohých príkladoch z reálneho života ukazuje, ako budujeme svet, ktorý sa stáva stále krehkejší a náchylnejší k turbulenciám. Pritom by sme sa mali snažiť o pravý opak, poučiť sa z prírody a byť antikrehký – profitovať z nepoznaného a neistého. Profitovať z toho, aký svet v skutočnosti je.
Skin in the game

How can a stubborn minority easily end up ruling? Should you take advice from a salesperson? Is the pope atheist? More than the foundation of risk management, skin in the game is an astonishingly complex worldview that, as Nassim Nicholas Taleb shows in this provocative book, applies to all aspects of our lives and drives history. In his inimitable style, he draws on everything from Antaeus the Giant to Donald Trump to Seneca to the ethics of disagreement to how to buy a used car, to create a jaw-dropping tapestry for understanding this idea in a brand new way. Full of philosophical tales and practical stories, Skin in the Game offers a key rule to live by: do not do to others what you don't want them to do to you, with its practical extension: never take advice from someone who gives advice for a living
