i) I get to hang a pair of samurai swords in the office, and play with them when no-ones looking
ii) It makes me feel like i am living in "American Psycho"
iii) There is the simple matter of prose - both are tricky to make the whole way through, but for entirely different reasons
iv) the Generics of TAOW; for example..... (flicks through pages for example)...
"When at distance from an enemy of equal strength it is difficult to provoke battle and unprofitable to engage with him in his chosen position"..... (on Terrain)...
I can easily interpret this in terms of trading as "let the market come to me" - but equally I can interpet this in terms of mowing the lawn / teaching nephew how to spin pass / loading the dishwasher... and there are a fair few of these statements that I can build analogies with trading.
TITZ, on the other hand, is trading specific, and with that loses some of its appeal. Some of it, while making perfectly valid points, just makes me want to vomit... (flicks through book....) - like the passage about a Boy and his Dog.
iV) personal taste, I guess
If I had to draw a distinction between the two, I would say that TITZ is good for outlining the ideas, TAOW is far superior at implementing them. The concepts are so much more profound.
