The Bed of Procrustes: Philosophical and Practical Aphorisms

In a climate when iconoclasm is the smartest intellectual stance — whether against bankers, traders, politicians, the energy industry, or journalists — one of today's most prominent rabble-rousers gives his quick-witted and snappy guide to questioning the status quo. With characteristic panache and brio, Taleb uses aphorisms to condense his rambunctious ideas and style. This paperback edition will serve as a perfect reference for anyone searching for the right questions to ask.
