This long-awaited textbook provides a unified perspective of a rich
and varied field. It recognises that in order to develop strategies
for improving the decision-making process one needs to understand
how decisions are made in practice and in what ways behaviour
differs from guidelines implied by normative theories of choice. It
is the interplay between descriptive, normative, and prescriptive
analysis that gives this book a special flavour. Using a set of
illustrative examples, Decision Sciences synthesises current
research about different types of decision making, including
individual, group, organisational, and societal. Special attention
is given to the linkage between problem finding and problem
solving. The principal message emerging from the book is that
decision making entails a complex set of processes that need to be
understood in order to develop sound prescriptions or policy
advice.
