Readings in multiple criteria decision aid

This book gives an up-to-date overview of Multiple Criteria Decision Aid. It covers the different trends in MCDA Research, not only in terms of "methods" but also in discussion of fundamental methodological aspects, basic theoretical concepts and conditions and problems embodying a robust real-world decision aid practice. Emphasis is also given on MCDA software descriptions, which are significant tools for aiding "analysts" in aiding "decision-makers". The book constitutes also a good textbook for MCDM teaching and includes references for a deeper study of the various multicriteria approaches.
