The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable by Nassim Nicholas Taleb

It's been awhile, but this book is just too good to keep to myself. Anyone interested in the Social Sciences, Economics, Mathematics, Investing, History or just in life in general, should all go out and read this book.

Most awe-inspiring is Taleb's prediction of the financial meltdown based on the invalidity of financial models 2 years before the financial services companies led the downfall of the global economy.

I absolutely loved it and drove friends and family insane telling them to go out and read it.

Go, read, love!
