Fooled By Randomness: The Hidden Role of Chance in Life and in the Markets

In a world desperate for patterns, Fooled by Randomness delivers a sobering truth: much of what we call success is luck masquerading as skill. With sharp wit and intellectual daring, the book peels back the layers of financial markets, human behavior, and belief systems to reveal how easily we are deceived by noise dressed as signal. How many of our convictions rest not on reason, but on stories we tell ourselves after the fact? This is a mind-bending journey through uncertainty, where arrogance meets probability, and where humility may be the only reliable compass. It is a mirror held up to our illusions—inviting us not just to see the world differently, but to think more wisely within it.
