Making Hard Decisions
An Introduction to Decision Analysis

There are two versions of Making Hard Decisions available now. The content is essentially identical, with the exception of the treatment of software:

In Making Hard Decisions with DecisionTools, Terry Reilly and I incorporate the DecisionTools suite of software from Palisade Corporation (@RISK, PrecisionTree, TopRank, and BestFit). The book includes the software as well as step-by-step tutorials.

In Making Hard Decisions, 2nd Edition, most chapters have a section about software that discusses some of the software available. NOTE: As of January, 2009, the publisher, Cengage Learning, has no plans to reprint this title. However, you can use the publisher's "custom publishing" ability to get the chapters you need.
