The Analytic Network Process (ANP), developed by Thomas Saaty in his work on
multicriteria decision making, applies network structures with dependence and
feedback to complex decision making. This new edition of Decision Making with
the Analytic Network Process is a selection of the latest applications of ANP
to economic, social and political decisions, and also to technological design
The ANP is a methodological tool that is helpful to organize knowledge and
thinking, elicit judgments registered in both in memory and in feelings
quantify the judgments and derive priorities from them, and finally synthesize
these diverse priorities into a single mathematically and logically justifiable
overall outcome. In the process of deriving this outcome, the ANP also allows
for the representation and synthesis of diverse opinions in the midst of
discussion and debate
The book focuses on the application of the ANP in three different areas:
economics, the social sciences and the linking of measurement with human
values. Economists can use the ANP for an alternate approach for dealing
with economic problems than the usual mathematical models on which economics
bases its quantitative thinking. For psychologists, sociologists and political
scientists, the ANP offers the methodology they have sought for some time to
quantify and derive measurements for intangibles. Finally the book applies
the ANP to provide people in the physical and engineering sciences with a
quantitative method to link hard measurement to human values. In such a
process, one is able to interpret the true meaning of measurements made on a
uniform scale using a unit
