Antifragile11 - critical summary review

About the summary

Here at 12min, we are big fans of Nassim Nicholas Taleb. The author of "The Black Swan" always comes on our list of favorite books and was one of the first micro books we created. If in "The Black Swan" Taleb has shown us that highly improbable and unpredictable events are widespread and shape our world, in his new book he brings us a concept as interesting as the Swan.
