À propos de cet audio

 The Instant New York Times Bestseller | With a New Preface from Nate Silver for 2025
New York Times Book Review Paperback Row selection

“Engaging and entertaining . . . a glimpse of the economy of the future.” —Tim Wu, New York Times Book Review

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Signal and the Noise, the definitive guide to our era of risk—and the players raising the stakes

In a world wired for chaos, these players are rewriting the rules. High-stakes, high-IQ, and often high on their own mythologies, they are driving the next era of finance, tech, and politics. But what happens when their bets go too far?

Nate Silver’s On The Edge reveals the hidden world of the River. It is the domain of gamblers and like-minded folks who move markets and change the fabric of society: poker legends, hedge fund titans, crypto speculators, and even those willing to bet the world’s future on AI. They are obsessives with a deep hunger for volatility and an unrelenting desire to exploit every edge over the rest of us. Silver embeds with them, competing in the World Series of Poker, visiting Sam Bankman-Fried’s FTX compound, and attending wild Miami yacht parties at the height of the crypto bubble.

On the Edge is a front-row seat to a new world order built on risk, math, and ambition—a gripping ride through the minds shaping your future, whether you like it or not.

This book covers risk in the context of poker, game theory more generally, gambling, finance, and P(doom) and its impact on decision-making. I wish there was more focus on Nate Silver's career taking risk and less on SBF and FTX collapsing, but I suppose Silver would be looking a gift horse in the mouth to have his interviews with SBF at the peak of his downfall.

What it says on the tin, and also SBF

To me this book presented as a guide to risk taking, however, it was written more about risk taking activities than risk taking itself. The insights were far and few between, and the prose was long-winded and very peripatetic, bringing up the same things over and over again. I failed to see the relevancy of the items discussed, especially in the latter half of the book, where I believe Nate really lost the narrative. This book could’ve been approximately half as long and twice as good.

A few nuggets interspersed, but way too long
