Whether we realise it or not, we all take risks large and small every day. Even the most cautious among us cannot opt out - the question is always which risks to take, not whether to take them at all.

In An Economist Walks into a Brothel, Allison Schrager equips readers with five principles for dealing with risk, principles used by some of the world's most interesting risk takers.
