Tóm tắt

How should you evaluate your options if you're uncertain about what's fundamentally valuable? This book introduces an axiomatic approach to explicate and vindicate Expected Value Maximisation. The result is a formally cogent and philosophically compelling extension of standard decision theory and an original take on the problem of axiological or normative uncertainty.
