But what causes some of us to be more successful than others? Is it really down to skill and strategy - or something altogether more unpredictable? This book is the word-of-mouth sensation that will change the way you think about business and the world.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eIt is all about luck: more precisely, how we perceive luck in our personal and professional experiences.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eNowhere is this more obvious than in the markets - we hear an entrepreneur has 'vision' or a trader is 'talented', but all too often their performance is down to chance rather than skill. It is only because we fail to understand probability that we continue to believe events are non-random, finding reasons where none exist. This irreverent bestseller has shattered the illusions of people around the world by teaching them how to recognize randomness. Now it can do the same for you.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eNassim Nicholas Taleb is a radical and paradoxical philosopher for our times. He has spent his life immersing himself in problems of luck, uncertainty, probability, and knowledge, and he has led three high-profile careers around his ideas, as a man of letters, as a businessman-trader, and as a university professor and researcher.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eHe is currently Distinguished Professor of Risk Engineering at New York University's Polytechnic Institute.
