Antifragile: Things That Gain from Disorder

Author: Nassim Nicholas Taleb

Format: 🎧 Audiobook

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️½

Overall impression:

Super dense, very clever, and very thought provoking. I think this will eventually be a book I will buy. One quote that stuck with me, “Not everything that everyone knows is worth knowing.”

Notes

“Antifragile” is the opposite of fragile. Fragile is something that breaks under pressure. “Antifragile” is not just robust, but something that gets stronger and better under pressure and choas “loves randomness and uncertainty”.
