Author Biography
George Pullman is Associate Professor of Rhetoric and Director of the Center for Instructional Innovation at Georgia State University.
Reviews" A Rulebook for Decision Making is a really helpful set of ideas for those who want to learn more about how decisions are made. It is not a set of rules as much as a set of considerations that can be customized and applied by each readerin fact, there are a few that I have not seen elsewhere. This is a book that is useful both to readers wanting to understand more about their decision making, and to those studying the topic." --Robert S. Duboff, CEO, HawkPartners
