In the last decade alone, humanity has experienced a series of devastating catastrophes, upheavals, and cataclysms that defy even the most fantastical predictions. Sorbonne graduate and New York financial guru Nassim Taleb calls such unpredictable events "Black Swans." He is convinced that they are the driving force behind both history as a whole and the existence of each individual. And to succeed, one must be prepared for them. Immediately after the publication of "The Black Swan," the author brilliantly demonstrated his "non-theory" in practice: amid the financial crisis, Taleb's company earned (not lost!) half a billion dollars for investors. But his work is not an economics textbook. It is the reflections of an extraordinary man on life and how to find one's place in it.

In a later postscript essay, "On the Secrets of Resilience," Taleb delivers a witty rebuttal to those orthodox economists who rejected his counter-theory.
