🛒 Purchase Options
📝 Description
Another seminal work by Nassim Nicholas Taleb, this book explores the concept of 'antifragility' – the property of systems that thrive and grow when exposed to volatility, randomness, disorder, and stressors. It contrasts with fragility (which breaks under stress) and robustness (which resists stress but doesn't improve).
💬 Quote Context
Taleb has a quote that's something like um the the beginning of robustification it starts with a modicum of harm.
