Synopsis

Nassim Nicholas Taleb challenges conventional wisdom about success in his book, Fooled by Randomness. He argues that luck plays a far greater role than we admit in our professional and personal lives, especially in the business world. This book offers an eye-opening exploration of how we misinterpret randomness and mistake it for skill.
