Steven Brams Bücher

Offers a technique that is not only fair, but also guarantees that both parties walk away with as much of the "win-win" potential as possible.

Exploring the complexities of political science, this work delves into unexpected insights and paradoxes that challenge conventional thinking. Brams presents intriguing scenarios and thought experiments that reveal the intricacies of decision-making and strategy in politics. By examining these nonobvious elements, the book encourages readers to rethink their understanding of political behavior and theory, making it a thought-provoking resource for scholars and enthusiasts alike.

Peter Fishburn has had a splendidly productive career that led to path-breaking c- tributions in a remarkable variety of areas of research. His contributions have been published in a vast literature, ranging through journals of social choice and welfare, decision theory, operations research, economic theory, political science, mathema- cal psychology, and discrete mathematics. This work was done both on an individual basis and with a very long list of coauthors. The contributions that Fishburn made can roughly be divided into three major topical areas, and contributions to each of these areas are identi?ed by sections of this monograph. Section 1 deals with topics that are included in the general areas of utility, preference, individual choice, subjective probability, and measurement t- ory. Section 2 covers social choice theory, voting models, and social welfare. S- tion 3 deals with more purely mathematical topics that are related to combinatorics, graph theory, and ordered sets. The common theme of Fishburn’s contributions to all of these areas is his ability to bring rigorous mathematical analysis to bear on a wide range of dif?cult problems.

Exploring the complexities of fair division, this book delves into various scenarios such as cake cutting, estate distribution, and international boundary disputes. It offers a rigorous analysis of the cake-cutting procedure, providing insights into how equitable solutions can be achieved in diverse situations. The text highlights the mathematical and theoretical principles underlying these everyday dilemmas, making it a valuable resource for understanding fairness in allocation processes.

Exploring the intersection of mathematics and democratic processes, Steven Brams presents innovative solutions to enhance decision-making in politics and conflict resolution. By applying social-choice and game theory, he introduces new procedures that empower voters to express their preferences more effectively and facilitate fairer divisions of contested goods. This work aims to improve the democratic nature of political and social institutions through rigorous mathematical analysis, making a compelling case for the integration of mathematical principles in governance and dispute resolution.
