Nassim Nicholas Taleb has devoted his life to immersing himself in problems of luck, uncertainty, probability, and knowledge, and he has led three high-profile careers around his ideas, as a man of letters, as a businessman-trader, and as a university professor. Although he spends most of his time as a flâneur, meditating in cafés across the planet, he is currently Distinguished Professor of Risk Engineering at New York University’s Polytechnic Institute. His work has been published in thirty-three languages.

非书评,只是一些定义。 脆弱性:不喜欢波动性、随机性、不确定性、混乱、错误、压力等的事物,希望其能处于一个和平、宁静、有序和可预测的环境中。 强韧:拥有能抵抗冲击保持原状能力(复原力)性质或事物。 反脆弱性:在冲击(广义的混乱)中受益能变得更好的事物,偏好随...
评分《反脆弱》是一本很容易引起误读的书。《黑天鹅》、《随机致富的傻瓜》更正了大部分人的决定论的或者机械论的旧世界观,但实际上,二战前后,几乎没有一个西方学科不是采取概率论和统计学的世界观了,换言之,西方在二战后,有一个世界观和方法论的革命,只是由于特殊的原因,...
评分冬吴相对论特地做了上下期的节目来推荐这本书,这就让人很好奇这本书究竟讲了什么独道的见解,很想来读一读。 书中提出了一个全新的概念------“反脆弱性”。按照我最初的理解,所谓的反脆弱性,指的就是类似与免疫系统的东西。然而实际上,作者特别指出了所谓的“反脆弱”,...
评分如果说《Fooled by Randomness》是线性叙事,讨论的是随机性问题,《The Black Swan》讨论的是重复叙事,讨论的是肥尾效应,《The Bed of Procrustes》是随机叙事,讨论的是各种奇葩的人生哲学,那么畅销作家Nicholas Nassim Taleb的新书《Antifragile》则是集大成者。 《Anti...
评分(书还没看完,先吐槽一下免得忘了) 这个家伙终于走上邪路了,天才与疯子仅一线之隔,我看作者在向后者靠拢。本来作者对于经济问题的分析还是很有建树的,但在此书中他试图将经济问题分析的方法上升到哲学角度,并以此来指点科学和技术的发展,这个就犯了他自己总结的“教鸟...

From the bestselling author of The Black Swan and one of the foremost thinkers of our time, Nassim Nicholas Taleb, a book on how some things actually benefit from disorder.
In The Black Swan Taleb outlined a problem, and in Antifragile he offers a definitive solution: how to gain from disorder and chaos while being protected from fragilities and adverse events. For what Taleb calls the “antifragile” is actually beyond the robust, because it benefits from shocks, uncertainty, and stressors, just as human bones get stronger when subjected to stress and tension. The antifragile needs disorder in order to survive and flourish.
Taleb stands uncertainty on its head, making it desirable, even necessary, and proposes that things be built in an antifragile manner. The antifragile is immune to prediction errors. Why is the city-state better than the nation-state, why is debt bad for you, and why is everything that is both modern and complicated bound to fail? The book spans innovation by trial and error, health, biology, medicine, life decisions, politics, foreign policy, urban planning, war, personal finance, and economic systems. 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 heard loud and clear.
Extremely ambitious and multidisciplinary, Antifragile provides a blueprint for how to behave—and thrive—in a world we don't understand, and which is too uncertain for us to even try to understand and predict. Erudite and witty, Taleb’s message is revolutionary: What is not antifragile will surely perish.
虽然不太喜欢作者的写作风格,不过确实是本有启示性的书
评分好有意思的书。里面有很多奥派经济学的影子,但是cover了更多方面。以后可以再读一遍。

评分You'll love it, or you'll be bored to death. There's no other way.
评分缺点不少,结构松散,废话不少,观点偏激,结论不一定全面。 但是,仍然强烈推荐。如果一个作者,没成功过,聪明过人,不敢真话,八面玲珑,不尖锐到偏激的程度,观点不是为一鸣惊人而一鸣惊人,那他写的东西会不乏味吗?
