Rational decision making tools are quantitative and analytical tools that managers use to make complex business decisions. Rational Decision Making for Managers provides students with a basic understanding of these techniques and helps them to recognize when they are appropriate. Sarah Keast and Mike Towler also show the characteristics of the decisions that can be informed by the use of each technique, thereby guiding the reader in their choice.

* separate chapters on robustness analysis and game theory
* a strong contextual discussion and clear structure
