Ellery Eells' original work examining theories of rational decision making continues to be illuminating for philosophers of science. Presented in a fresh twenty-first-century series livery, and with a specially commissioned new preface, this influential work has been revived for a new generation of readers.
First published in 1982, Ellery Eells'' original work on rational decision making had extensive implications for probability theorists, economists, statisticians and psychologists concerned with decision making and the employment of Bayesian principles. His analysis of the philosophical and psychological significance of Bayesian decision theories, causal decision theories and Newcomb''s paradox continues to be influential in philosophy of science. His book is now revived for a new generation of readers and presented in a fresh twenty-first-century series livery, including a specially commissioned preface written by Brian Skyrms, illuminating its continuing importance and relevance to philosophical enquiry.
