The Consistent Preferences Approach to Deductive Reasoning in Games
During the last decade I have explored the consequences of what I have chosen to call the 'consistent preferences' approach to deductive reasoning in games. To a great extent this work has been done in coop eration with my co-authors Martin Dufwenberg, Andres Perea, and Ylva Sovik, and it has lead to a series of journal articles. This book presents the results of this research program. Since the present format permits a more extensive motivation for and presentation of the analysis, it is my hope that the content will be of interest to a wider audience than the corresponding journal articles can reach. In addition to active researcher in the field, it is intended for graduate students and others that wish to study epistemic conditions for equilibrium and rationalizability concepts in game theory. Structure of the book This book consists of twelve chapters. The main interactions between the chapters are illustrated in Table 0.1. As Table 0.1 indicates, the chapters can be organized into four dif ferent parts. Chapters 1 and 2 motivate the subsequent analysis by introducing the 'consistent preferences' approach, and by presenting ex amples and concepts that are revisited throughout the book. Chapters 3 and 4 present the decision-theoretic framework and the belief operators that are used in later chapters. Chapters 5, 6, 10, and 11 analyze games in the strategic form, while the remaining chapters-Chapters 7, 8, 9, and 12-are concerned with games in the extensive form.

Negotiating Identity in Modern Foreign Language Teaching
This edited book examines modern foreign language teachers who research their own and others’ experiences of identity construction in the context of living and teaching in UK institutions, primarily in the Higher Education sector. The book offers an insight into a key element of the educational and socio-political debate surrounding MFL in the UK: the teachers’ voices and their sense of agency in constructing their professional identities. The contributors use a combination of empirical research and personal reflection to generate knowledge about MFL teachers’ identity that can enhance how they are perceived in the social and educational establishments and raise awareness of key issues affecting the profession. This book will be of particular interest to language teachers, teacher trainers, applied linguists and students and scholars of modern foreign languages.

Power in Language, Culture, Literature and Education
In one of the contributions to this edited volume an interviewee argues that "English is power". For researchers in the field of English Studies this raises the questions of where the power of English resides and which types and practices of power are implied in the uses of English. Linguists, scholars of literature and culture, and language educators address aspects of these questions in a wide range of contributions. The book shows that the power of English can oscillate between empowerment and subjection, on the one hand enabling humans to develop manifold capabilities and on the other constraining their scope of action and reflection. In this edited volume, a case is made for self-critical English Studies to be dialogic, empowering and power-critical in approach.

Delivering Citizenship
The 21st century promises to be an "Age of Mobility." More people around the globe, from an ever greater variety of backgrounds, are migrating. As Europe and North America absorb larger and more diverse inflows, many policymakers, commentators, and academics are questioning whether their societies can cope with the influx. Citizenship has emerged as one of the key policy battlegrounds for such concerns. Citizenship lies at the nexus of a host of social policy issues because it provides definitions of identity, belonging, and participation in key aspects of society, including the right to vote. Governments recognize the urgent need to understand citizenship better. Once a narrow, somewhat static legal backwater, citizenship has become a dynamic policy vehicle for promoting the political incorporation of immigrants and, by extension, their more complete integration. This book is the first major product of the Transatlantic Council on Migration. It offers insights into key aspects of the citizenship debate from a policy perspective. It is a result of the deliberations and thinking of the Transatlantic Council on Migration, which brings together leading political figures, policymakers and innovative thinkers from the USA and Europe. The Council is a new initiative of the Migration Policy Institute (MPI) in Washington, DC. The Bertelsmann Stiftung and the European Policy Centre (in cooperation with the King Baudouin Foundation) are the Council's policy partners.

What are preferences?
Preferences refer to the subjective feelings or attitudes individuals have towards different options or choices. They reflect an individual's likes and dislikes, and play a crucial role in decision-making processes.

Understanding one's preferences can help in making choices that align with one's desires and priorities.

This can be due to a variety of factors such as personal experiences, exposure to new information, changes in values or priorities, and shifts in societal norms.

It is important to recognize that preferences are not fixed and can be influenced by a range of internal and external factors.

Are taste preferences inherited?
Taste preferences are influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Research has shown that genetics play a role in determining an individual's sensitivity to certain tastes, such as bitterness. However, environmental factors, such as cultural influences and early exposure to different flavors, also play a significant role in shaping taste preferences. Therefore, while there is a genetic component to taste preferences, they are not solely inherited and can be influenced by a variety of factors.

Myśli nowoczesnego Polaka
"Od dawna już mam poczucie tego, że nasz systemat politycznego myślenia — o ile o takim może być mowa — w przeważnej mierze zbudowany jest na fałszach. W najważniejszych sprawach, w kwestjach dotyczących samej istoty naszego narodowego bytu, naszego stosunku do innych narodów i naszych widoków na samoistną przyszłość, polityczną i cywilizacyjną — zadawalniają nas zupełnie a nawet najlepiej nam smakują sądy, którym rzeczywistość zadaje kłam na każdym kroku. (...) Przez porównanie swego narodu z obcymi przekonałem się, że wiele z tych kłamstw naszą tylko myśl zatruwa, że niedorzeczności, które gdzieindziej powtarzane są tylko przez stare panny i w ogóle przez jednostki, żyjące po za społeczeństwem, odgrodzone od realnego życia, u nas stanowią podstawę myślenia ludzi poważnych, kierowników opinji i przodowników pracy publicznej, którzy na nich budują sądy dziejowe i nadzieje polityczne."

Myśli nowoczesnego Polaka
„Myśli nowoczesnego Polaka” jest to tekst polityczny Romana Dmowskiego. Roman Dmowski pisze w przedmowie do swojego trzeciego wydania Myśli nowoczesnego Polaka, że celem jego książki nie było propagowanie czytelnika na rzecz pewnych dogmatów, ale pobudzenie go do myślenia o rzeczach, które dla autora mają pierwszorzędną doniosłość moralną. Cel ten lepiej osiągnięty zostanie, gdy czytelnik zobaczy, jak sam autor zastanawia się, zmienia i rozwija swe poglądy pod wpływem spostrzeżeń i doświadczeń… Podstawę dla pierwszego wydania książkowego Myśli z 1903 stanowiła seria artykułów Dmowskiego ukazująca się w 1902 na łamach „Przeglądu Wszechpolskiego” pod pseudonimem R. Skrzycki. Wydanie to miało nakład około tysiąca egzemplarzy i ukazało się pod nazwiskiem autora. Kolejne wydanie ukazało się we Lwowie w 1904. W wyniku nieporozumienia z wydawcą w wydaniu trzecim (Lwów 1907) jako część ostatnia ukazał się artykuł Podstawy polityki polskiej z 1905, który miał w istocie stanowić jedynie komentarz do zamkniętego dzieła. Wydanie czwarte i piąte zostało wydane w Warszawie odpowiednio w 1933 i 1943 bez zmian. W czasach PRL wydawanie Myśli... było zakazane przez cenzurę, ukazywały się one na emigracji (w Londynie) oraz w drugim obiegu. Pierwsze oficjalne wydanie powojenne, poprzedzone przedmową Jana Dobraczyńskiego, ukazało się w 1989 roku.
