About the Author

Nassim Nicholas Taleb is the trader-philosopher who predicted 2008's financial crisis while turning uncertainty into fortune.

Former derivatives trader managing billions, now Distinguished Professor at NYU. His Incerto series sold 3+ million copies in 40 languages. Coined "Black Swan" entering global vocabulary. Made fortune betting against financial system twice. Advises governments and IMF on systemic risk.

Beyond the books: Taleb practices ancient Mediterranean lifestyle—lifting weights, walking, and fasting—embodying his antifragility principles daily.

His barbell strategy protects downside while capturing upside. Investors using Taleb's methods showed positive returns during every major crash since 2000.

The iconoclast profiting from chaos.
