ANTI-FRAGILE PB

Taleb, Nicholas

Εκδότης Penguin , ISBN 9780141038223

Tough times don't last. Tough people do. In The Black Swan, Taleb showed us that highly improbable and unpredictable events underlie almost everything about our world.

Here Taleb stands uncer-tainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary. The antifragile is beyond the resilient or robust. The resil-ient resists shocks and stays the same; the antifragile gets better and better.Just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension, many things in life benefit from stress, disorder, volatility, and turmoil.

What Taleb has identified and calls antifragile are things that not only gain from chaos but need it in order to survive and flourish.Antifragile is a blueprint for living in a Black Swan world. Erudite, witty, and iconoclastic, Taleb's message is revolutionary: the antifragile, and only the antifragile, will make it.'The hottest thinker in the world' Bryan Appleyard, Sunday Times

Ειδικευόμενος στους κινδύνους απρόβλεπτων σπάνιων γεγονότων ("μαύρων κύκνων") εργάστηκε σε ανώτερες θέσεις στη Νέα Υόρκη και στο Λονδίνο πριν ιδρύσει την Empirica LLC, χρηματιστηριακή εταιρεία και εργαστήριο ερευνών για τον κίνδυνο. Επίσης, διδάσκει στο Ινστιτούτο Μαθηματικών Επιστημών Courant του Πανεπιστημίου της Νέας Υόρκης .Nassim Nicholas Taleb has devoted his life to immersing himself in problems of luck, uncertainty, probability and knowledge. Part literary essayist, part empiricist, part no-nonsense mathematical trader, he is currently Dean's Professor in the Science of Uncertainty at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. His last book, the bestseller Fooled by Randomness, has been published in eighteen languages and was selected by Fortune magazine as one of "The Smartest Books of All Time".
