Black Swan. Under the sign of unpredictability

In the last decade, mankind experienced a number of hard disasters, shocks and cataclysms that are not stacked in the framework of the most fantastic predictions. Fifty-year-old Lebanets, graduate Sorbonne and New York Financial Guru Nasim Taleb calls such unpredictable events with black swans. He is convinced: it is they who give the impetus as the history in general and the existence of each individual. And to succeed, you have to be ready for them. Immediately after the release of the Black Swan, the author brilliantly demonstrated his non-theory in practice: against the background of the financial crisis, Talee has earned (and not lost!) For investors half a billion dollars. But his work is not a textbook on economics. These are the reflection of a very outstanding person about life and how to find in her place.
In his later postspript essaging On Sustainability Secrets, Taleb gives a witty repulsory to those economists-orthodoxs who accepted the anti-earthenware in the bayonets created by him.
The meeting of the Aphorisms of the Naszym Talee is a brilliant quintessence of his original ideas
