  • ANTIFRAGILE
    Jun 26 2025
    Antifragile: Things That Gain from Disorder explores systems that not only withstand chaos and shocks but actually benefit from them. Nassim Nicholas Taleb introduces the concept of “antifragility,” which goes beyond resilience or robustness. While fragile things break under stress and resilient things endure it, antifragile things grow stronger. Taleb argues that unpredictability, volatility, and randomness are not enemies but essential forces for innovation, strength, and evolution—whether in nature, business, health, or personal life. He criticizes over-reliance on experts, centralized systems, and modern risk-avoidance culture. Instead, he champions decentralization, trial-and-error, and "skin in the game" as ways to harness antifragility. Through anecdotes, philosophy, and practical insights, Taleb urges readers to design lives and systems that embrace uncertainty and chaos rather than fear them. The book is a bold guide to thriving in an unpredictable world by becoming antifragile in thought and action.
