{"product_id":"9780521147491","title":"Decision Order and Time in Human Affairs (2ND)","description":"\u003cp\u003eOriginally published in 1969, the second edition of Professor Shackle's book has a fresh preface, an extra chapter and a number of additions to its bibliography. The extra chapter is concerned with the point at which one would decide to abandon an old policy and replace it with a new one. It is, in the words of the author, a further, rather radical development of the Stockholm sequence analysis. Professor Shackle examines how a decision can be rational only in a special sense, that of exploiting to the best present effect, on the decision-maker's state of mind, the scope afforded to imagination by what is known and by the gaps in that knowledge. The attempt made in this book to provide a theory of such decision has been called 'an existentialist economics'.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48683766415595,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":109.87,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/4484\/5803\/files\/9780521147491-1.jpg?v=1781625873","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.sg\/ja\/products\/9780521147491","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Singapore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
