Adapt
Book (italiano):
<DIV><DIV><P>When faced with complex problems we have all become accustomed to looking to our leaders to set out a plan of action, to blaze a path to success.<BR><BR>In this ground-breaking book, Tim Harford shows us a new and inspiring approach to solving the most pressing problems in our lives. Harford argues that today’s challenges simply cannot be tackled with ready-made solutions and expert opinion; the world has become far too unpredictable and profoundly complex. Instead, we must adapt.<BR><BR>Deftly weaving together psychology, evolutionary biology, anthropology, physics and economics, along with the compelling story of hard-won lessons learned in the field, Harford makes a passionate case for the importance of adaptive trial-and-error in tackling issues such as climate change, poverty and the financial crisis. From a spaceport in the Mojave Desert to the street battles of Iraq to a burning offshore drilling rig to everyday decisions in our business and personal lives, this is a handbook for surviving – and prospering – in our complex and ever-shifting world.</P></DIV></DIV>
