Inights galore!
My Aunt just had her eyes done at Long Island Eye Care... her descision was totally influenced by reading this and two other books on eye surgeries.She ended up avoiding Lasik and going with Mike Sable, a master. No scaring or pain, on visible anything 24 hours after the procedure...no dry eye... go to the Jordan of Surgery in your area if you are messing with your eyes.Cut no corners and read and study to inform this most crittical of descisions.

Exactly What I Needed!
This book gave me all the information that I needed in order to make an educated decision regarding which refractive surgery was right for me.It is written in terms that a regular person can comprehend, which in turn, enabled me to communicate with my own physician more clearly.

I highly recommend this book if you are considering refractive surgery of any kind. You'll be glad you did! ... Read more

Description:
Social environments constitute a framework in which it is possible to study how groups of agents interact in a society. The framework is general enough to analyze both non-cooperative and cooperative games. In order to remedy the shortcomings of existing solution concepts and to identify the consequences of common knowledge of rationality and farsightedness, we propose to apply extensive-form rationalizability to the framework of social environments. For us, the social environment is a primitive. On this social environment is defined a multistage game. An outcome of the social environment is socially rationalizable if and only if it is rationalizable in the multistage game. The set of socially rationalizable outcomes is shown to be non-empty for all social environments and it can be computed by an iterative reduction procedure. We introduce a definition of coalitional rationality for social environments and show that it is satisfied by social rationalizability. ... Read more
