Prima della scoperta dell’Australia gli abitanti del Vecchio Mondo erano convinti che tutti i cigni fossero bianchi: una convinzione inconfutabile, poiché sembrava pienamente confermata dall’evidenza empirica. L’avvistamento del primo cigno nero è stato quindi una sorpresa; ma non è questo il punto. Il punto è che una conoscenza basata sull’esperienza pregressa è una conoscenza fallace, che ci rende fragili al cospetto dell’infinità di eventi che possono verificarsi. Basta un solo cigno nero per sbriciolare un’asserzione generale ricavata da millenni di avvistamenti di milioni di cigni bianchi. E allora perché ci ostiniamo a basare le nostre vite sulla previsione del futuro e sul controllo dei rischi? Perché continuiamo ad affidarci alle scelte basate sul già noto, come se non sapessimo che l’ignoto esiste e possiamo incontrarlo?

A black swan is a highly improbable event with three principal characteristics: It is unpredictable; it carries a massive impact; and, after the fact, we concoct an explanation that makes it appear less random, and more predictable, than it was.

If the prescriptions for getting rich that are outlined in books such as The Millionaire Next Door and Rich Dad Poor Dad are successful enough to make the books bestsellers, then one must ask, Why aren't there more millionaires? In Fooled by Randomness, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a professional trader and mathematics professor, examines what randomness means in business and in life and why human beings are so prone to mistake dumb luck for consummate skill. This eccentric and highly personal exploration of the nature of randomness meanders from the court of Croesus and trading rooms in New York and London to Russian roulette, Monte Carlo engines, and the philosophy of Karl Popper. Part of what makes this book so good is Taleb's ability to make seemingly arcane mathematical concepts (at least to this reviewer) entirely relevant in evaluating and understanding everything from the stock market to the success of those millionaires cited in the aforementioned bestsellers. Here's an articulate, wise, and humorous meditation on the nature of success and failure that anyone who wants a little more of the former would do well to consider. Highly recommended. –Harry C. Edwards –This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
