Taleb
I've been a fan of Taleb for a while now, doubly so now that everything I've ever heard him say has shown itself to be true. Whether or not you have a math or finance background, he's worth reading. And now he has an article in Edge; and even though Edge can be excruciatingly self-congratulatory in it's "we're the smart people" marketing, the article is very worth reading.

Wow, thanks!!! I have yet to get to the Black Swan.. but this is great!
I second the vote for Taleb. Absolutely brilliant man.
The Black Swan is great, but don't bother with the 2nd book -- it's more of the same so he can earn some more $$$; not a lot of content.
