In this profound and playful book, Nassim Nicholas Taleb presents his ideas about life in the form of aphorisms, the world's earliest - and most memorable - literary form. Procrustes was a character from Greek mythology who abducted travellers and invited them to spend the night in a special bed, which they had to fit to perfection. They never did. Those who were too tall had their legs chopped off; those who were too short were stretched. Every aphorism here is about a Procrustean bed of sorts - we humans, facing the limits of our knowledge, the unseen and the unknown, resolve the tension by squeezing life and the world into crisp commoditized ideas, reductive categories, specific vocabularies and pre-packaged narratives. Only by embracing the unexpected - and accepting what we don't know - can we see the world as it really is.

这本书对于不会英语的中国人来说,只有二十分之一是有用的,我是在最吵闹的公共环境,马路上读完的。在这种环境下,能得到这本书并读这种书,真是两项最佳选择! 它全篇都是几十个字的短句,3倍于字的行距,左右双版,左边是英语原文的草书,右边才是中国字。正迎合了信息爆炸时...
評分知识、优雅、勇气的组合。 虽然我一直记不住作者的名字,可以这本小书却是我近两年来读到的“说话最够劲”的书。都是警句,读起来也不费劲。 除了少数句子有点绕口之外,都是有趣的话语。译者也有非凡的功力。我注意到往往是逗号后面的那半句产生神奇的效果。这是一种写作技...
評分——by木木勺 我记得第一次接触人生格言这个词,是在小学上了几年但认字还不多的时候,当时觉得人生格言真是神奇,好像只要找到了它就找到了一辈子的指南针和行为规范。那时候同学们之间经常相互交流,你的人生格言是什么啊?每听到一个特别唬人的就记在本子上,因为写作文的...
評分本书的重点是普罗克拉斯提斯之床也就是削足适履的哲言。重点阐述了现代社会对人的限制,并认为这对天才造成了损失,也让人变得迟钝。 同时作者对天才做出了定义,具有很难被模仿的缺陷的人。认为削足适履后的才叫文明。 这让我想到了中国,百家争鸣的时代是天才辈出,而独尊儒...
評分1. 思维清晰是勇气的结果,而不是反过来。 2. 傻瓜认为自己是特殊的,别人都是普遍的;聪明人认为自己是普遍的,别人都是特殊的。 3. 绝大多数沉迷于信息-网络-媒体-报纸的人都很难接受,获得智慧的主要方法是从头脑中除去垃圾信息。 4. 愚人的陷阱是,你会关注你知道而别人...
