The concept of Antifragility was coined by Nassim Nicholas Taleb to describe things that become stronger through adversity, and he developed it in response to the phenomenon of things winning from disorder. AntIfragile things gain from disorders is the title of a book by him that was published in the USA on November 27, 2012.
Taleb explains that things are robust, their lives are fragile, and that these characteristics are found everywhere in nature, especially in biological systems. It also offers readers insights into the nature of winning things from disorder.
The most interesting economics books are not those that offer abstract theories of competition, but books like Jim Collins's Best of the Greats, which attempt to identify companies that have survived decades of good and bad times. I would encourage anyone who reads Antifragile and finds themselves reading this book to remember that the book is full of powerful, domineering - independent ideas.
The Black Swan's antifragility has become synonymous with Nassim Nicholas Taleb, and the idea is this: the things that profit from disorder rise and expand like fools into fools.
