Description

Acting under Uncertainty explores how uncertainty shapes decision-making across disciplines, challenging the excessive confidence with which scientists present conclusions. This volume in the Theory and Decision Library series addresses fundamental questions about uncertainty in economics, social sciences, and beyond. Rather than viewing uncertainty as merely negative, the book suggests it can foster wisdom, enterprise, and discovery. It critiques the overstatement of application ranges in scientific findings and examines the legitimate role of doubt in rigorous research. Ideal for economists, social scientists, and decision theorists seeking deeper understanding of how uncertainty influences analysis and policy formation.

Key Features

Part of Springer's Theory and Decision Library series (Volume 13), providing scholarly peer-reviewed content on decision-making theory and uncertainty.

Multidisciplinary approach examining uncertainty across economics, social sciences, and other fields rather than limiting analysis to a single perspective.

Challenges conventional scientific overconfidence by exploring legitimate questions about uncertainty in major academic disciplines and research conclusions.

Addresses both theoretical foundations and practical implications of uncertainty for economists and decision-makers working with incomplete information.

Published by Springer, a leading academic publisher known for rigorous peer review and scholarly quality in business, finance, and economic research.
