On Tuesday, February 26th at 7pm Nassim Taleb is hosting a book party.

Nassim Nicholas Taleb spent 20 years as a derivatives trader before starting a full-time career as a scholar of applied probability and risk management. Taleb’s current program is to build rules of decision-making under incomplete information and understanding, and to make political and economic systems robust to Black Swan problems. In his groundbreaking and prophetic book, Black Swan, Taleb shows in a playful way that black swan events explain almost everything about our world.
