Our preferences determine how we act and think, but exactly what
the mechanics are and how they work is a central cause of concern
in many disciplines. This book uses techniques from modern logics
of information flow and action to develop a unified new theory of
what preference is and how it changes. The theory emphasizes
reasons for preference, as well as its entanglement with our
beliefs. Moreover, the book provides dynamic logical systems which
describe the explicit triggers driving preference change, including
new information, suggestions, and commands. In sum, the book
creates new bridges between many fields, from philosophy and
computer science to economics, linguistics, and psychology. For the
experienced scholar access to a large body of recent literature is
provided and the novice gets a thorough introduction to the action
and techniques of dynamic logic.
