RESILIENCE has genuine potential to be the next breakout business book. It is firmly in the tradition of great reads that go beyond the business market, such as classic bestsellers THE TIPPING POINT, BLACK SWAN and PREDICTABLY IRRATIONAL
All systems break down. Some bounce back, others do not. RESILIENCE is a book about how the world works. It covers business, economic, geographic and social systems in a thrillingly readable narrative. A wealth of absorbing examples are covered, from the link between US oil prices and the recent tortilla riots in Mexico to what was really happening when the US government decided not to bail out Lehman Bros.
