Business. Philosophy. Nonfiction. Economics. HTML:Antifragile is a standalone book in Nassim Nicholas Taleb??s landmark Incerto series, an investigation of opacity, luck, uncertainty, probability, human error, risk, and decision-making in a world we don??t understand. The other books in the series are Fooled by Randomness, The Black Swan, Skin in the Game, and The Bed of Procrustes.
Nassim Nicholas Taleb, the bestselling author of The Black Swan and one of the foremost thinkers of our time, reveals how to thrive in an uncertain world.
Just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension, and rumors or riots intensify when someone tries to repress them, many things in life benefit from stress, disorder, volatility, and turmoil. What Taleb has identified and calls ??antifragile? is that category of things that not only gain from chaos but need it in order to survive and flourish. 
In The Black Swan, Taleb showed us that highly improbable and unpredictable events underlie almost everything about our world. In Antifragile, Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary, and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner. The antifragile is beyond the resilient or robust. The resilient resists shocks and stays the same; the antifragile gets better and better.
Furthermore, the antifragile is immune to prediction errors and protected from adverse events. Why is the city-state better than the nation-state, why is debt bad for you, and why is what we call ??efficient? not efficient at all? Why do government responses and social policies protect the strong and hurt the weak? Why should you write your resignation letter before even starting on the job? How did the sinking of the Titanic save lives? The book spans innovation by trial and error, life decisions, politics, urban planning, war, personal finance, economic systems, and medicine. And throughout, in addition to the street wisdom of Fat Tony of Brooklyn, the voices and recipes of ancient wisdom, from Roman, Greek, Semitic, and medieval sources, are loud and clear.
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.

Great book! I listened to the audio and now I'll probably buy a hard copy to go back through and take notes. ( )

Antifragiel is het derde deel in de Incertoreeks van Nicholas Taleb. En het dikste. Het is weer zo’n typisch Taleb boek, met veel voorbeelden uit zijn eigen praktijk, scheldpartijen, dweperijtjes en onverwachte invalshoeken. Van Taleb weet ik inmiddels dit: haal eruit wat je kan gebruiken en laat de rest voor wat het is. Dus schreef ik een antifragiel blog, dat tegelijkertijd dient als boekrecensie. Lees hier de hele recensie https://www.rizoomes.nl/filosofie/antifragiel-een-soort-van-boekrecensie/ ( )

Per chi lo conosce, è il solito Taleb: alcune idee ottime, altre idee discutibili, tanto "machismo intellettuale", grande facilità di lettura, accompagnata tuttavia alla tendenza alla prolissità. A ogni modo, l'idea di antifragilità vale una lettura del libro. ( )

Wir tun alles, um unser Leben mega-sicher und stabil zu gestalten, Überraschungen sind uns wenig angenehm. Dieses Buch ist weitschweifend oft, aber es holt weit aus, um jene Überraschungen zu liefern, die Denken heute braucht, gepaart mit einem Handeln ohne Händeln. Ich verabscheue die Vorstellung, dass Verbesserung nur dadurch zustande kommt, dass andere geschädigt werden. Egoisten erdrücken andere Menschen zu nichts als Laufrädchen, die die eigene Faulheit mächtig absichern wollen: durch Nullen. Ob es Taleb oder ich gesagt haben? Ich weiß es nicht mehr, in jedem Fall war es der Öffner für dieses Buch, als ich zufällig in ihm blätterte.

Hier schreibt ein Mensch, der versteht ein Mensch zu sein in Zeiten der grassierenden Unsicherheiten, er schreibt über Dinge, die er wirklich getan hat, ein Praktiker, der in der Lage ist, höchst genau und klug zu abstrahieren, gelebte, höchste Philosophie ohne Beispiel. Dabei kann er sich erlauben, Dinge zu sagen, ohne auf Befindlichkeiten Rücksicht zu nehmen. Man liest bswp: "Akademiker hingegen (vor allem diejenigen in den Gesellschaftswissenschaften) leben offenbar in einem Zustand ständigen gegenseitigen Misstrauens, sie sind von kleinlichen Zwangsvorstellungen, von Neid bis hin zu eiskaltem Hass besessen, unbedeutende Zurechtweisungen wachsen sich zu anhaltendem Groll aus, der im Lauf der Zeit, in der Einsamkeit einer immer gleich bleibenden Umgebung, wo der einzige Austauschpartner der Computerbildschirm ist, regelrecht versteinert."

Vielleicht stimmt sogar, das der Handel das Beste im Menschen fördert, Nassim Taleb schreibt aus einem weiten, praktischen Horizont, der mich fasziniert, der überraschend andere Sichtweisen fördert. Ich stimme ihm in vielen Überlegungen zu und vor allem hier: "Ich möchte glücklich darüber sein, ein Mensch zu sein, ich möchte in einer Umgebung leben, in der andere Mneschen mit ihrem Schicksal zufrieden sind."

Und dann steht auf Seite 38 dieser Satz, den ich jenem(r) zurufe, der/die es verdient hat:

"Wer einen Betrüger als solchen erkennt, ihn aber nicht als Betrüger bezeichnet, ist ein Betrüger."

Ich war noch nie einer und werde nie ein Betrüger sein. Dieses Buch hat mich darin bestärkt, Wege zu gehen, die Betrügern nicht gefallen werden.

Sometimes Nassim Nicholas Taleb is led astray by his contrarianism, but then that is his point: If you don't take risks, you don't get results. This is a bold, entertaining, clever book, richly crammed with insights, stories, fine phrases and intriguing asides. Does it achieve its goal, or does it cram and twist the world on to a Procrustean bed of one theory, thereby somewhat contradicting its own empirical and pragmatic outlook? I am not sure. I will have to read it again. And again.
