"In recent years, the traditional Bayesian theory of rational decision making, based on subjective calculations of expected utility, has faced a powerful attack from philosophers such as David Lewis and Brian Skyrms, who advance an alternative casual decision theory. Ellery Eells undertakes here a defense of the traditional theory that combines intuitive plausibility with rigorous development." George A. Miller, one of the founders of cognitive psychology, was a pioneer who recognized that the human mind can be understood using an information-processing model. His insights helped move psychological research beyond behaviorist methods that dominated the field through the 1950s. In 1991, he was awarded the National Medal of Science for his significant contributions to our understanding of the human mind.
