<br/><br/>This book is all about Black Swans: the random events that underlie our lives, from bestsellers to world disasters. their impact is huge; they`re nearly impossible to predict; yet after they happen we always try to rationalize them. a rallying cry to ignore the `expert`, the Black Swan shows us how to stop trying to predict everthing and take avantage of uncertainty.
