The Prisoner's Dilemma
ISBN: 9781107044357 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 306 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The Prisoner's Dilemma is one of the most fiercely debated thought experiments in philosophy and the social sciences, presenting the simple insight that when two or more agents interact, the actions that most benefit each individual may not benefit the group. The fact that when you do what is best for you, and I do what is best for me, we end up in a situation that is worse for both of us makes the Prisoner's Dilemma relevant to a broad range of everyday phenomena. This volume of new essays from leading philosophers, game theorists, and economists examines the ramifications of the Prisoner's...

Non-Bayesian Decision Theory: Beliefs and Desires as Reasons for Action
ISBN: 9789048179572 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 170 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. For quite some time, philosophers, economists, and statisticians have endorsed a view on rational choice known as Bayesianism. The work on this book has grown out of a feeling that the Bayesian view has come to dominate the academic com- nitytosuchanextentthatalternative, non-Bayesianpositionsareseldomextensively researched. Needless to say, I think this is a pity. Non-Bayesian positions deserve to be examined with much greater care, and the present work is an attempt to defend what I believe to be a coherent and reasonably detailed non-Bayesian account of decision theory. The main thesis I...

The Ethics of Technology: A Geometric Analysis of Five Moral Principles
ISBN: 9780190652265 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Autonomous cars, drones, and electronic surveillance systems are examples of technologies that raise serious ethical issues. In this analytic investigation, Martin Peterson articulates and defends five moral principles for addressing ethical issues related to new and existing technologies: the cost-benefit principle, the precautionary principle, the sustainability principle, the autonomy principle, and the fairness principle. It is primarily the method developed by Peterson for articulating and analyzing the five principles that is novel. He argues that geometric concepts such as points,...

The Dimensions of Consequentialism: Ethics, Equality and Risk
ISBN: 9781107033030 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Consequentialism, one of the major theories of normative ethics, maintains that the moral rightness of an act is determined solely by the act's consequences. The traditional form of consequentialism is one-dimensional, in that the rightness of an act is a function of a single moral aspect, such as the sum total of wellbeing it produces. In this book Martin Peterson introduces a new type of consequentialist theory: multidimensional consequentialism. According to this theory, an act's moral rightness depends on several separate dimensions, including individual wellbeing, equality and risk....

Advances in Dynamic Equations on Time Scales
ISBN: 9780817642938 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The development of time scales is still in its infancy, yet as inroads are made, interest is gathering steam. Of a great deal of interest are methods being intro duced for dynamic equations on time scales, which now explain some discrepancies that have been encountered when results for differential equations and their dis crete counterparts have been independently considered. The explanations of these seeming discrepancies are incidentally producing unifying results via time scales methods. The study of dynamic equations on time scales is a fairly new subject, and research in this area is...
