Rating: 4
Summary: Excellent Basic theory of Social Computation. Prolix writing
Comment: The author develops a quantitative theory of "Marginal Utility" in nations' leaders choosing to go to war. Then the author applies the reserach of others to provide examples, and makes the case that "Marginal Utility" correllates quite well with "confilct initiation decisions." Well thought out and well researched, but the author's stilted language and prolix writing make reading a chore. As with all truely new science, the author is unsure of the most appropriate mathematical constants (Natural log or base 10 log). In the final chapters the author writes to the change in warfare from interstate to intrastate. This shows amazing insight given that this was published almost 20 years ago.
