Nassim Taleb rose to fame with his Black Swan TeheImpact of Highly Improbable Events.
He has followed with other books.Today we viewed a paper titled The Financial Collapse of 2008, Black Swan or Tipping Point? Reading this and the last post should give you some insight to what the authors meant by that title.
Taleb has his own home page Fooled By Randomness
Is it possible you might have a quiz over these posts and links,
what do you think, would that be a Black Swan Event?
