Présentation de l'éditeur :
A bold new work that challenges many of our long-held beliefs about risk, reward, politics, religion, and finance from the New York Times bestselling author of The Black Swan and one of the foremost thinkers of our time, Nassim Nicholas Taleb.
The phrase "skin in the game" is one we have often heard but have rarely stopped to truly dissect. It is the backbone of risk management, but it's also an astonishingly complex worldview that, as Taleb shows in this book, applies to literally all aspects of our lives. As Taleb says, "Never trust anyone who doesn't have skin in the game. Without it, fools and crooks will profit and their mistakes will never come back to haunt them."
In his inimitable style, Taleb pulls on everything from Antaeus the Giant to Hammurabi to Donald Trump to Seneca to the ethics of disagreement to create a jaw-dropping tapestry for understanding our world in a brand new way.

NASSIM NICHOLAS TALEB has devoted his life to studying problems of luck, randomness, human error, probability, and the philosophy of knowledge. He has managed to transform his interests into three careers, as a man of letters, a financial trader, and a university professor. Although he spends most of his time as a flâneur, meditating in cafés across the planet, he is currently Distinguished Professor at New York University. His books have been published in thirty-six languages. He is widely recognized as the foremost thinker on probability and uncertainty. Taleb lives mostly in New York.
