Synopsis
Nassim Nicholas Taleb explores why having a personal stake in an outcome is the only way to ensure fairness and efficiency in society. He argues that many of our modern problems stem from 'intellectuals' and leaders who make decisions without facing the consequences of their failures. By looking at history and ethics, this book explains why you should trust actions over words and avoid those who risk nothing of their own.
