Are you curious about the unexpected events that shape our lives and why we often fail to predict them? Join us for a mind-stretching discussion of The Black Swan by Nassim Nicholas Taleb. This book challenges the way we think about risk, randomness, and the limits of knowledge and will definitely spark some strong opinions.
We’ll meet in a cozy café in Rotterdam to explore its bold ideas and how they apply to our world today. As always, everyone gets a vote on what we read next.📅 When: Saturday, August 24th, from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM
📍 Where: TBA
👥 Who: Anyone who's read the book and wants to dive into deep, open-minded conversation.
🧠 Space is limited to 20 participants so RSVP soon.About the Book:
In The Black Swan, Taleb explores how rare and unpredictable events called “Black Swans” have massive impact. Yet we tend to rationalize them only in hindsight. Mixing philosophy, finance, and personal stories, the book pushes readers to embrace uncertainty, question conventional wisdom, and rethink how we interpret the world.
If you're into bold ideas and challenging your thinking, this one is for you. Come share your take. We’d love to have you there! 🦢📚 - BeSquare Volleyball Game – Join the Fun! 🏐Gymzaal Vlooswijkstraat, Rotterdam
