About Antifragile

Antifragile is a groundbreaking masterpiece by Nassim Nicholas Taleb, published in 2013 by Penguin Books Ltd. This book, which falls under the genre of non-fiction, introduces and explores the concept of 'antifragility', a term coined by Taleb himself. Antifragility goes beyond resilience or robustness; the antifragile gets better with shocks, volatility, and uncertainty, thriving and growing stronger under stress. Taleb's insightful and provocative ideas challenge our perceptions about the world's inherent randomness and how we should respond to it. A must-read for anyone interested in understanding the complex dynamics of our unpredictable world. Antifragile is a testament to Taleb's profound knowledge and distinctive philosophical perspective.
