The Antifragile (book)

"Antifragile," by Nassim Nicholas Taleb, explores the concept of systems that thrive and grow stronger under stress and uncertainty, rather than just resisting harm. Taleb contrasts fragile things, which break under pressure, with robust ones, which endure. Antifragile entities benefit from challenges, chaos, and volatility. The book applies this idea to various fields, including economics, medicine, and personal growth, proposing that embracing uncertainty and disorder can lead to better outcomes. Ultimately, being antifragile means evolving and adapting positively in the face of adversity, rather than merely surviving it.
