The Bed of Procrustes: Philosophical and Practical Aphorisms
Nassim Nicholas Taleb
has intelligently constructed an idiosyncratic masterpiece! The collection of aphorisms are expertly curated by
Nassim Nicholas Taleb
then presented in a simple and poignant sequence allowing the reader to journey down a path of enlightenment with eyes wide open. Although the thought-provoking text only cover 176 pages, each calculated and deliberate line translates to 100s of deepthought and meditation- both during and after reading
The Bed of Procrustes: Philosophical and Practical Aphorisms
. This books stands on my bookshelf as one of the few books with an infinite re-readability and applicability to all readers.
