The Black Swan: Second Edition: The Impact of the Highly Improbable: With a New Section: "on Robustness and Fragility": 2 (Incerto) by Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Angry and rude, but there are gems inside and you need to skip/ignore many pages of anecdotes
Half of the book its about body reconstituting-reengineering and the other half is about brain plasticity.. a good book!
almost like a manual for the survivalist
Puedes no estar de acuerdo con algunas de las teorias o predicciones que el autor establece en el libro, pero en general es un gran trabajo que deshebra con gran entusiasmo un posible futuro para la humanidad o como en alguna parte augura: Humanidad 3.0
extras: la parte final de referencias es un gran tesoro.... vale mucho la pena leerlas por completo para un mejor comprendimiento de los temas
Un gran trabajo, altamente recomendado

Good book.
Besides a pair of Deu Ex Machina, and the ridiculos concept that a surviving poblation will not try to renovate the tech that keep it alive, the boook is great... tons of character development and multiple interlooped histories.

A history about sacrifices... big ones...
Great history
Great history
Into the Void: Star Wars Legends (Dawn of the Jedi) (Star Wars: Dawn of the Jedi - Legends) by Tim Lebbon
It was entertaining, but the principal character come to me as a inept "detective" that don't do the appropriate questions and left the major investigation to her companions.
Wow.
That was a great telling of a second chance on life -inside a space opera-.
Liked the description of the futuristic take on military life and how it was keep away from the earth populace, maybe the explain on another book why it was necessary to manage it in that way.
It was interesting to me the explanation of how the travelling technology was using the intricate ways of the universe and its repercussions on the sense of one on self.
Surprising to me, knowing that I am not romantic inclined, never the less I liked the second chance to a renovated love.

Great fantasy survival book with a BIG wink-wink on reality
Philosophy, ethics and a background of macroeconomics its good to remember that in real life magic its not required
Will be a follow up book? Because I enjoy this one but its fall short by means of a DeusEx Machina. And there was a good selections of themes that get touched by this history.
I could not finish this one.
I needed too much suspension of disbelief to follow the story ...
I could "understand" the plot and mechanics of that universe, but it was too far-fetched, as when another army uses a different mathematics to calculate an offense then it affects the effectiveness of my calculations how could this be?
Different formations create variable effects on the enemy? even psychological?
Too much to try to surpass them.

Great Scifi action... done by a real -weird- space McGyver
