A totally New idea that some systems actually benefit from shocks and how to expose ourselves to them. The long awaited third part of the trilogy to the global bestsellers, Fooled by Randomness and The Black Swan. Like The Black Swan, Antifragility is a New idea and will capture the zeitgeist. From the bestselling author of The Black Swan, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a book on how to benefit from disorder. In The Black Swan, Taleb outlined a problem and his revelatory New book Antifragile offers a definitive solution for how to live in a world that is unpredicatable, chaotic and full of shocks and how to thrive during periods of disaster. Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner. Antifragile is about what to do when we don't understand. It is a New word because it is a New concept. Many of the greatest breakthroughs in human endeavour come from the innovation by trial and error that is part of antifragility. And some of the best systems we know of, including natural selection and evolution, have antifragility at their heart. How did the disaster of the sinking of the Titanic bring us closer to safety? Why does the stress on bones make us stronger? Why should you write a resignation letter on your first day in the office? Why should we detest the lack of accountability at the heart of capitalism? Irreverent and ambitious, Antifragile provides a blueprint for how to live and thrive in a world we don't understand and which is too uncertain for us to even try to predict. Taleb's message is revolutionary: what is not antifragile will surely perish.
