joshholder 's review for:
The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable
by Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Incredibly thought provoking and unique book. It's definitely changed the way I view the world: as a naive young person I have far more faith in institutions and models than is probably justified.
HOWEVER, the reviews that say the author is incredibly pretentious and arrogant wouldn't be wrong. I still think it's very much worth a read, though.
