Ilias Kouskouvelis

Thucydides on Choice and Decision Making

Why War Is Not Inevitable

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book uncovers Thucydides' decision making schemata and his thinking on how people decide, particularly when in power or war. Based on these ideas, the author interprets the outbreak of the Peloponnesian war and the Sicilian expedition, and shows that they were a result of decision making and, thus, not inevitable.
