Best-Selling Author of The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable, Nassim Nicholas Taleb spent his entire life as a risk taker (options trader) before becoming a writer and researcher in philosophical, mathematical and practical problems with probability.
I have read all of Taleb's books. He is a lightening rod due to. the fact that, recently, his blocks people on social media that disagree with him.
Taleb is the author of a multivolume Incerto (The Black Swan, Fooled by Randomness, Antifragile, and Skin in the Game) covering broad facets of uncertainty. It has been published into 41 languages. In addition to his trader life, Taleb has also written, as a backup of the Incerto, more than 70 scholarly papers in mathematical statistics, quantitative finance, statistical physics, philosophy, ethics, economics, & international affairs, around the notion of risk and probability (grouped in the Technical Incerto).
Taleb is currently Distinguished Professor of Risk Engineering at NYU's Tandon School of Engineering (only a quarter time position) and scientific advisor for Universa Investments. His current focus is on the properties of systems that can handle disorder ("antifragile"). Taleb refuses all honors and anything that "turns knowledge into a spectator sport."
