Andrew Zolli and Ann Marie Healy
Resilience
Why Things Bounce Back
Free Press, 2012
¿De qué se trata?
Why do some systems crash in a crisis and why do others bounce back?
Recommendation
Innovation consultant Andrew Zolli and journalist Ann Marie Healy draw examples from widely diverse economic, natural and social systems to explain the nature of resilience, its significance and the factors that contribute to it. The concepts in this complex exposition apply to society today and will become increasingly relevant as world systems become progressively interconnected and stressed. Even though Zolli and Healy offer no easy answers, their treatise outlines ways to augment systemic resilience. getAbstract recommends this ambitious work to futurists, risk managers, crisis management planners and systems thinkers.
