Everyone wants to succeed in life. But what causes some of us to be more
successful than others? Is it really down to skill and strategy – or
something altogether more unpredictable? This book is the word-of-mouth
sensation that will change the way you think about business and the
world. It is all about luck: more precisely, how we perceive luck in our
personal and professional experiences. Nowhere is this more obvious
than in the markets – we hear an entrepreneur has ‘vision’ or a trader
is ‘talented’, but all too often their performance is down to chance
rather than skill. It is only because we fail to understand probability
that we continue to believe events are non-random, finding reasons where
none exist. This irreverent bestseller has shattered the illusions of
people around the world by teaching them how to recognize randomness.
