The sum of Taleb's thinking - original theses, elegant reading pleasure, and sharp points. We live in an uncertain world, and the system that governs it has dramatically demonstrated how fragile it is. Yet, we have learned nothing from this and do not counter this fragility with any "antifragility." Bestselling author Nassim Nicholas Taleb shows us how this can be achieved. He applies his insights from the study of randomness to nearly all practical areas of life, from education to culture to politics. In doing so, he provides a significant, practically philosophical response to the challenges of uncertain times. For we do not win by trying to fend off randomness and uncertainty at all costs, but by transforming them into strengths: The antifragile remains - everything else will disappear.
