Prediction and Optimal Decision: Philosophical Issues of a Science of Values

C. West Churchman

In this personal estimate of the methodological problems of determining human values, the author bases his thoughts on the idea that the greatest unsolved problem of exploration lies in the study of human’s real wants. The book examines critically the distinction between science and ethics by outlining an approach to scientific verification of ethical judgments.
