TL;DR: As project planners of all technical specialties are constantly faced with the dilemma of making decisions under uncertainty (as are all other humans for that matter), it would seem appropriate to introduce them to the philosophy, the language, some of the techniques, and perhaps most importantly, some the possible uses and limitations of decision theory in project planning.
Abstract: making under uncertainty (or &dquo;decision theory&dquo; as it has come to be generally known) would be well worthwhile. However, it is rather obvious that most present and future project planners have neither the inclination nor the time to delve into the technical intricacies of decision theory. On the other hand, as project planners of all technical specialties are constantly faced with the dilemma of making decisions under uncertainty (as are all other humans for that matter), it would seem appropriate to introduce them to the philosophy, the language, some of the techniques, and perhaps most importantly, some of the possible uses and limitations of decision theory in project planning.
