A great series. Starting from the financial market, but all the rules applied to everyday life. He coined the world antifrigle in one of the books, which is a very interesting concept. The series may change the way you look at the world and how to deal with it.

The low entry price for the first book is a segway for the rest of the series 😀

Nassim is legit, highly recommend all of his books. Likely the most influential books I've ever read.

His other books go on sale occasionally. I was able to complete the Incerto with this one without paying full price for any of them.
