... from the Grumpy Old Bookman: Nassim Nicholas Taleb: The Black Swan. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)
"I've been putting this off, you know -- writing a review of Nassim Nicholas Taleb's new book, The Black Swan. Why? Because it's hard work for one thing: requires concentration; and because it's a deuced risky enterprise for another."
Me too. Putting it off, that is, but not only because it is hard work - which it is. But mostly because it takes an amount of time I haven't had at my disposal as I try to get ready to go on vacation and deal with some other matters. Which is why my review won't run until July 29, after I return from vacation. And which is also why I have read only the GOB's introductory remarks.
