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. RESILIENCE introduces completely new ideas such as 'flipping' which is when a systems has been pulled out of shape so often it changes forever.
