Abstract

Thomas Crombie Schelling thinks about the essence of phenomena. He distills such essences and demonstrates their presence in many important social phenomena. We shall chronicle three stages of his life, designated by the titles of his books: The Strategy of Conflict (1960); Micromotives and Macrobehavior (1978); and Choice and Consequence (1984).
