Description

Thinking and Deciding by Jonathan Baron provides a comprehensive overview of judgments and decisions. The book explores normative standards used to evaluate conclusions, including logic, probability, and utility theory, as well as descriptive accounts of departures from these standards. The text covers various aspects of decision-making, such as decisions under risk, decision analysis, moral decisions, social dilemmas, and decisions about the future. It assumes no particular prerequisites beyond introductory algebra and is geared towards advanced undergraduates, early graduate students, and researchers in related fields. This edition updates the previous versions, offering a broad overview of the field of judgments and decisions.
