More Praise
Nassim Taleb: "At last, a real book by a real risk-taking practitioner. The Dao of Capital mixes (rather, unifies) personal risk-taking with explanations of global phenomena. You cannot afford not to read this!” Patrick O'Shaughnessy: "I just read this book again, my third time. It is dense, but its central idea will likely cause you to question your investment strategy in SOME way, which is always valuable." Paul Tudor Jones: “Investors of all kinds will find immeasurable value in this convincing and thoroughly researched book where Mark champions the roundabout . Using thought-provoking examples from both the natural world and the historical world, The Dao of Capital shows how a seemingly difficult immediate loss becomes an advantageous intermediate step for greater future gain, and thus why we must become ‘patient now and strategically impatient later.’”
