Nassim Nicholas Taleb's ideas

I consider Nassim Nicholas Taleb’s ideas and work essential. All his books are indispensable: Fooled By Randomness, The Black Swan, Antifragile, and Skin In The Game.

Some concepts created or popularized by him:

• Uncertainty.
• Non-linearity.
• Fat-tailed distribution.
• Winner-take-all effect.
• Optionality.
• Convex/Concave strategies.
• Black Swan theory.
• Antifragile.
• Via negativa.
• Ergodicity.
• Lindy effect.
• Skin in the game.
• Intellectual Yet Idiot.
• Iatrogenics.
• Barbell strategy.
• Green Lumber fallacy.
• Intolerant minority.
