Order 520103...$14.95
In its second edition and now is paperback, this expanded edition includes up-to-date advances from behavioral finance and cognitive science. It is about luck or more precisely how we perceive and deal with luck in life and business. Set against the backdrop of the most conspicuous forum in which luck is mistaken for skill, this work is a captivating insight into one of the least understood factors of all our lives. Written in an entertaining and narrative style, the book succeeds in tackling three major intellectual issues: the problem of induction, the survivorship biases, and our genetic unfitness to the modern word. It's a fun and interesting read that will only add to our inner most thoughts of lucky fools who seem to always be in the right place at the right time. 316 pages, indexed, paperbound, 2004.
