Book Summary:
Fooled by Randomness: The Hidden Role of Chance in Life and in the Markets by Nassim Nicholas Taleb is a thought-provoking exploration of how randomness and luck shape our lives far more than we realize. Through a blend of philosophy, psychology, and finance, Taleb challenges the common belief that success is always the result of skill and hard work. Using examples from the world of trading, business, and everyday decision-making, he explains how humans tend to mistake random events for patterns and attribute outcomes to talent instead of chance. The book urges readers to recognize the role of probability, uncertainty, and human bias in their judgments, making it both a critique of overconfidence and a guide to thinking more rationally in an unpredictable world.

About the Author:
Nassim Nicholas Taleb is a Lebanese-American scholar, statistician, former trader, and philosopher known for his work on risk, uncertainty, and probability. Born in 1960 in Amioun, Lebanon, Taleb has written several influential books, collectively known as The Incerto series, which includes Fooled by Randomness, The Black Swan, Antifragile, and Skin in the Game. His writing combines deep mathematical insight with reflections on human behavior, decision-making, and resilience. Taleb’s ideas have had a profound impact on economics, finance, and philosophy, encouraging readers and professionals to question assumptions, embrace uncertainty, and understand the limits of human knowledge.
