"Skin in the Game: Hidden Asymmetries in Daily Life" is a 2018 nonfiction book by Nassim Nicholas Taleb, former financial options trader, statistician, professor, and bestselling author of The Black Swan. Taleb's thesis is that skin in the game is necessary for fairness, commercial efficiency, and risk management, as well as being necessary to understand the world. The book is part of Taleb's multi-volume philosophical essay on uncertainty, titled the Incerto, which also includes Fooled by Randomness (2001), The Black Swan (2007–2010), The Bed of Procrustes (2010–2016), and Antifragile (2012).
