Nassim Taleb is basically a stopped clock. He's pretty big on pointing on how we're all prone to find illusory correlations (not his discovery) and he's a great promoter for Kahneman and Tversky, but there are other areas where he clearly is out of his depth. It's beyond obvious, for instance, that he's never gotten past Popper in his studies of philosophy of science. Unfortunately, his disciples are (ironically) quite terrible at thinking for themselves and buy into his demagoguery.

Basically a book by Nassim Taleb is an incoherent summary of the books that Nassim Taleb has read within the past year, with a few morsels of recycled insight here and there.
