Nassim Nicholas Taleb

The B&N Podcast - A podcast by Barnes & Noble

Categories:

In this episode our guest is the fascinating writer and thinker Nassim Nicholas Taleb, author of the bestsellers The Black Swan and Antifragile.  Taleb has been a hedge fund manager, a mathematician and professor of engineering, but he's found his widest influence as a thinker about risk, randomness and how they influence our lives from the boardroom to the street.  He was joined in our podcast studio by our executive producer Jim Mustich for a conversation about His latest book, Skin in the Game: Hidden Asymmetries in Daily Life, and about Taleb's unique point of view on how we make our way in a fundamentally uncertain world.
