Discuss how scientific knowledge and reasoning can be used to help us make decisions. Provide at least one example.

Answer 1

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decision-making

this wikipedia page has got lots of material, i once had the same question as yours, that page helped me get a partial answer, it also helped me understand that decision can be rational and analitically crafted only up to a certain point, uncertainty on outcomes surely has got an important role in making rational choices not so rational after all

i hope my answer is acceptable...
