Progress In Decision, Utility And Risk Theory edited by Attila Chikán, József Kindler, István Kiss, Doris Ostrusska.

In this volume we present some of the papers delivered at FUR-IV - the Fourth International Conference on Founda­ tions and Applications of Utility, Risk and Decision Theory in Budapest, June 1988. The FUR Conferences have provided an appreciated forum every two years since 1982 within which scienti...
