The Antidote By Oliver Burkeman
Feb 10, 2024 
The Antidote by Oliver Burkeman is a witty, fascinating, and counterintuitive read that challenges decades of self-help advice. In this thought-provoking book, Burkeman forces us to rethink our attitudes toward failure, uncertainty, and death. Rather than relentlessly pursuing positivity, he explores an alternative path—one that involves embracing the very things we often try to avoid.
Drawing inspiration from ancient Roman Stoic philosophers and Buddhists, Burkeman engages with a diverse cast of characters. He interviews life coaches who intentionally make their clients’ lives difficult, maverick security experts who question post-9/11 security measures, and unconventional business gurus who advocate for having no goals at all.
