It provides a panorama of principal concepts and theorems demonstrated on axiomatized methods to guide readers in choosing the best alternatives and rejecting the worst ones. Finally, it describes the obtained extensions, often paradoxical, reached when these results are extended to classification problems.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe objective of this book is also to allow the decision maker to find his way through the plethora of \"multicriterion methods\" promoted by council organizations. The meta-method it proposes will allow him to distinguish the wheat from the chaff.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe collaboration with Kenneth Arrow comes essentially from the fact that his work influenced all subsequent works quoted in this book. His famous impossibility theorem, his gem of a PhD thesis, and his various other works resulted in him receiving the Nobel Prize for economy just before meeting Hervé Raynaud who was at that time a visiting professor at Berkeley University in California. Their mutual publications serve as the basis for the axiomatic approach in multicriterion decision-making.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHervé Raynaud\u003c\/strong\u003e, a former student of the école Polytechnique and an honorary emeritus professor of Mathematics, has worked with about 20 academic organizations around the world.
