If you like anti-fragile, I really recommend Fooled by Randomness and Black Swan. The Black Swan is a good example of a book with a good original idea that gets repeated so often its almost conventional wisdom, except that half the people saying it are misusing the term because they didn’t read the book.
- insane_dreamer 1y agoBlack Swan is one of those books that has definitely stuck with me even though it's been ~15 years since I read it. But I would consider it philosophy, not a "business book".
- marcosdumay 1y ago> except that half the people saying it are misusing the term because they didn’t read the book Oh, man, make that 95% and you would be describing The Innovator Dilemma. What is up with people that take those ideas they never bothered to read and insist they know them?
- calmbonsai 1y agoI've read both of them and also the Bed of Procrustes. Though they're useful, I just feel the others are very classic "paper non-usefully expanded to book form" business titles whereas Antifragile's topic is benefited by the full treatise treatment.
