Decision making.
My closest friend, Dominic Bourke, has started his own blog recently. It concerns betting on horse racing, a subject about which I know close to nothing. If you have any interest in how he evaluates his bets check out his site at www.anyutadva.blogspot.com. I am sure that you will learn a lot, even if you have punted on horses for years.

His most recent post however concerns the BBC television programme 'Crisis Command'. I recommend reading his review of Sunday's show because it illustrates the profound lack of understanding that many people have when faced with situations in which all the outcomes are bad, but some are less bad than others. Many people simply cannot grasp that an outcome in which a small number of people die is a good result, if the only alternative is an outcome in which many more people die. Consequently when forced to take action that will involve the certain death of a few people, they will often refuse to do so, thereby risking the deaths of a great many more.
