A Foundation of Measurement

Do you think Math is the science of measurement?
I am not sure about it, but I know a mathematician who is a radical philosopher of measurement and next week I am going to meet him. Thomas Saaty is an Iranian-American professor of mathematics who goes to the core of it. The comparision is both predecessor and generalization of measurement. The pairwise comparison theory of Prof. Saaty is a reconciliation of mathematics and psychology. With the precise understanding of pairwise comparison you can make an abundance of rational decisions. From picking the right software to
Palestine-Israeli peace process. Ok,... at least we try!
