>>	Anonymous Sat Mar 18 16:13:42 2017 No.9257868 >>9256856 I recently read this. It seemed like one third interesting ideas, one third repeating them over again, and one third the author being a smug douchebag.

>>	Anonymous Sat Mar 18 16:21:24 2017 No.9257890 Should I read this or Black Swan first?
