Brief review: Taleb is a world authority on the probabilistic theory. He argues that randomness and luck plays a far bigger role in our lives than we think they do. This book will shatter your beliefs and convictions about the power of talent and skills. Not that they are not important but probability plays a bigger role in success. His arguments and examples are super. I truly enjoyed reading this book. Could be a little heavy and technical at times but I would say it's a good read.
