Decision Theory in Practice

Making Better Decisions introduces readers to some of the
principal aspects of decision theory, and examines how these might
lead us to make better decisions.

  • Introduces readers to key aspects of decision theory and
    examines how they might help us make better decisions

  • Presentation of material encourages readers to imagine a
    situation and make a decision or a judgment

  • Offers a broad coverage of the subject including major insights
    from several sub-disciplines: microeconomic theory, decision
    theory, game theory, social choice, statistics, psychology, and
    philosophy

  • Explains these insights informally in a language that has
    minimal mathematical notation or jargon, even when describing and
    interpreting mathematical theorems

  • Critically assesses the theory presented within the text, as
    well as some of its critiques

  • Includes a web resource for teachers and students
