First edition of the Nobel Prize-winning economist's important compilation of essays. Octavo, original cloth. Presentation copy, inscribed by the author on title page, "For John Rogers I hope he enjoys this book as much as I enjoyed writing it Thomas Schelling." Fine in a very good dust jacket. Jacket design by Mike Fender. With an ingenious, often startling approach, Thomas Schelling brings new perspectives to problems ranging from drug abuse, abortion, and the value people put on their lives to organized crime, airplane hijacking, and automobile safety. One chapter is a clear and elegant exposition of game theory as a framework for analyzing social problems. Another plays with the hypothesis that our minds are not only our problem-solving equipment but also the organ in which much of our consumption takes place. What binds together the different subjects is the authorâs belief in the possibility of simultaneously being humane and analytical, of dealing with both the momentous and the familiar. Choice and Consequence was written for the curious, the puzzled, the worried, and all those who appreciate intellectual adventure. "Whether one is looking for evidence and insights on the rationality or the irrationality of man, Choice and Consequence is one of the very best places to look⦠Mr. Schellingâs book is a superb place to get a sense of both the need for and the dangers of the assumption of rationality" (New York Times).

First edition, first printing. 8vo. xi, [5], 363, [1] pp. Original blue cloth, spine lettered in silver, dust jacket (contents clean and fresh; jacket slightly edge worn with minor chipping to tips of spine panel and corners, small area of surface wear to front panel from clumsy removal of old price sticker, notwithstanding a very good copy). Cambridge, MA; Harvard University Press. The 'third classic book' by the Nobel Prize winning economist Thomas C. Schelling, focusing 'on conflicts within individuals. Economics has traditionally treated the individual as a unified and internally consistent utility maximizer. Yet difficulties with reconciling conflicting impulses are central to the human experience. The problem of addiction, Schelling suggests, entails a failure to manage inner conflicts. It arises from inadequate self-control. The key insight of Choice and Consequence is that problems of self-control are commonly dampened, if not resolved fully, through tricks of the mind, social institutions, and public policies' (New Palgrave). Schelling was awarded the 2005 Nobel Prize in Economic Science for 'having enhanced our understanding of conflict and cooperation through game theory analysis'.
