SUMMARY THE BLACK SWAN BASED ON THE BOOK BY NASSIM NICHOLAS TALEB SUMMARY WRITTEN BY: LIBRARY OF STORIES CONTENT The Concept of Black Swan Events The Apprenticeship of an Empirical Skeptic How We Seek Validation The Speculator and the Prostitute: A Parable of Scalability Living in the Antechamber of Hope Confirmation Bias and the Narrative Fallacy The Ludic Fallacy and the Uncertainty of the Nerd The Gray Swans of Extremistan The End of Certainty: Embracing Uncertainty General Analysis of The Black Swan ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK “The Black Swan” by Nassim Nicholas Taleb explores the impact of rare, unpredictable events—referred to as Black Swans—that shape our world. Taleb challenges conventional thinking by questioning our ability to predict the future, highlighting the flaws in traditional models used in economics, finance, and risk management. He argues that humans often ignore the unpredictable and focus too much on the known, which leads to poor decision-making. The book blends philosophy, statistics, and personal anecdotes, urging readers to embrace uncertainty and build systems that are resilient to the unknown rather than trying to predict and control it.
