Palgrave Studies in Classical Liberalism

This book offers a comprehensive, modern understanding of legal philosophy through an evolutionary lens. Taking a highly interdisciplinary approach throughout, the book first explores the history of ‘classic evolutionism’, regarding theories of law and justice from the authors of the Scottish Enlightenment to Hayek. The second part of the book analyses the contributions of new schools of thought, including evolutionary psychology, evolutionary game theory and co-evolutionist theories. The final part of the book builds a fresh argument for a modern evolutionary account of law, considering key methodological debates and the evolution at its three levels – biological, social and individual – to explain the emergence, stabilization and change of legal rules. 
This book is a timely addition to the growing interest in evolutionary thinking across the sciences, and will be of interest to a wide range of scholars including historians and philosophers of law as those interested in the intersection of law and psychology, law and economics, and the classical liberal tradition.

Synthesis Lectures on Operations Research and Applications

This book presents a comprehensive examination of crime patrolling problems across various domains, including robotics, security, and law enforcement, with a focus on the mathematical models used to optimize patrolling strategies. Patrolling is a critical crime prevention and deterrence strategy, requiring the effective allocation of resources to address evolving security challenges. In addition, patrolling is one of the most effective and widely adopted crime prevention and deterrence strategies worldwide. It is integral to security agencies such as police and military forces across various domains, including land, air, and maritime areas. As such, effective patrolling requires the coordination of manpower, technological resources, and policies to address evolving security challenges. The authors review recent research on robotic patrolling, multirobot systems, and police patrolling and also explore advances in modeling, optimization, and practical applications. In addition, the author’s analysis categorizes studies by core modeling themes, such as Game Theory, Mathematical Optimization, and Stochastic methods, and highlights the secondary modeling themes that frequently complement the primary approaches. Each study is categorized by fields including, but not limited to domain, patrolling focus, area representation, and solution methodology to facilitate cross-comparison. The book identifies gaps in current research, particularly the lack of a holistic examination of patrolling from robotic, autonomous, human, and hybrid perspectives, and proposes future directions for research in this evolving field.

A Theory with Implications for Artificial Intelligence

Busting the myth of “groupthink,” a powerful look at how our ability to influence one another can accelerate individual and collective intelligence. A leading expert on social networks and behavior change delivers new principles of social influence to improve collective intelligence. For years, scientists have struggled to discover the formula to produce the world’s smartest teams. But the solution has been elusive&nbsp;because they have focused on individual intelligences. In Goodthink, Damon Centola shows how to build teams, design online platforms, and create office spaces that sharpen our thinking individually and align our intelligence collectively. The secret, it turns out, is in the shape of our networks. How did MIT’s Building 20, populated with outcasts and eccentrics, become one of the most innovative and productive research hubs in American history? Why did increasing the number of online echo chambers unexpectedly reduce political polarization? How can popular “herding behavior” make crowds more intelligent? This book has the answers. Taking us behind the scenes of the most successful systems of collective intelligence in the modern world, it introduces a new science of what it means to be smart. Every day, each of us faces four critical decision-making challenges: choosing, coordination, cooperation, and creativity. Goodthink describes the tell-tale signs of when effective structures are at work, enabling us to “read the room” and begin to shift the dynamics at play. It also reveals how to know when things are failing and what to do to fix them. Delivering path-breaking insights currently at work within Fortune 500 companies, global philanthropic organizations, and government agencies, the book reveals underlying dynamics of group intelligence that have gone overlooked. Showing us how these principles work to make us feel more confident, more connected, and more engaged, Goodthink leaves us feeling smarter—because we are!

The New Science of Collective Intelligence

Goodthink

A novel framework for how entrepreneurs can use Bayesian reasoning to make decisions. This edited volume introduces and explores the concept of Bayesian entrepreneurship, a novel framework for understanding entrepreneurial decision-making under uncertainty. It brings together contributions from leading scholars to examine how entrepreneurs form beliefs about opportunities, learn through experimentation, and make strategic decisions. The Bayesian approach emphasizes the critical interaction between an entrepreneur’s prior beliefs and their capacity for learning and experimentation to update those beliefs. This dynamic process allows entrepreneurs to formulate and test theories about value creation and capture, attract resources and capabilities, and implement effective entrepreneurial strategies. The volume is organized around four key themes: <ul><li>the foundations and distinguishing features of Bayesian entrepreneurship </li><li>how entrepreneurs form and update prior beliefs in entrepreneurial decision-making</li><li>the role of experimentation and learning in entrepreneurial strategy</li><li>applications to entrepreneurship education and practice</li></ul> Bayesian Entrepreneurship offers both theoretical contributions advancing our understanding of entrepreneurial decision-making and practical insights for entrepreneurs and educators.

Bayesian Entrepreneurship

Consumers around the world often give voluntary sums of money (called tips) to service providers after those workers have served them. There are no good measures of how much is tipped worldwide, but total tips in the US food and beverage industry alone are estimated to exceed $45 billion a year. Thus, tips represent more than small change and their salience and importance have grown in recent years with the advent of digital tipping, which has expanded both the number and types of services asking for tips and the size of tips they are asking for. Academic psychologists and other scholars have studied this topic for 50 years, but that information is locked away in academic journals and writing that is not easily accessible to the general public. This book brings that work together, along with new previously unpublished analyses, in readable prose that shares what we have learned about the topic – including why people tip, who are the best and worst tippers, why we tip some occupations and not others, why tipping norms vary across countries, and what factors influence the size of tips consumers leave. The insights revealed will benefit consumers struggling to navigate the complex and evolving expectations placed on them, tipped workers seeking to increase their incomes, managers of tipped workers interested in improving employee morale and customer satisfaction, and academics interested in further advancing our understanding of this fascinating behavior.
