Nonfiction: "The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable" by Taleb has had the biggest influence on me.
Fiction: I dunno but maybe "Anathem" by Neal Stephenson.
- ataylor284_ 2y agoTwo of my favorites, too, although I'd go with Anti-Fragile from Taleb. I think Anathem is Stephenson's best. The Diamond Age is also really good. For every one of his books, I just wish he could write an ending that matches the quality of the rest.
- anthonyrstevens 2y ago>> I think Anathem is Stephenson's best Hard to choose for me, but I might cast a vote for the Baroque Cycle, although I love almost all of his science fiction as well.
- MPSimmons 2y agoAnother vote here for Anathem. That was a world I just wanted to curl up in and learn more about.
