«¿Existe la suerte?» is Nassim Nicholas Taleb's philosophical popular-science essay, published by Booket in paperback (352 pages, in Spanish).
It starts from the idea that personal and professional success is often due to chance rather than ability, and analyses why people tend to seek causes where there is only probability. With examples from the financial world and figures such as Solon, Ulysses, Popper and Soros, Taleb shows how to understand luck and face its unpredictability.
