Antifragile things that gain from disorder

Taleb, Nassim. (Author). Ochman, Joe. (Narrator). Books on Tape, Inc. (Added Author).

Summary: Examples of Antifragility: When you stress your body by lifting a big weight, your body gets stronger. New York has the best restaurants in the world because particular restaurants are always going bust, making the aggregate stronger and stronger, or antifragile. Evolution is antifragile. Certain business and investment strategies are antifragile. Older things tend to be more antifragile than newer ones - because they've been exposed to more Black Swans.
