#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER – In this candid and gripping memoir, President George W. Bush describes the critical decisions that shaped his presidency and personal life. George W. Bush served as president of the United States during eight of the most consequential years in American history. The decisions that reached his desk impacted people around the world and defined the times in which we live.

Decision Points brings readers inside the Texas governor’s mansion on the night of the 2000 election, aboard Air Force One during the harrowing hours after the attacks of September 11, 2001, into the Situation Room moments before the start of the war in Iraq, and behind the scenes at the White House for many other historic presidential decisions. For the first time, we learn President Bush’s perspective and insights on: – His decision to quit drinking and the journey that led him to his Christian faith
– The selection of the vice president, secretary of defense, secretary of state, Supreme Court justices, and other key officials
– His relationships with his wife, daughters, and parents, including heartfelt letters between the president and his father on the eve of the Iraq War
– His administration’s counterterrorism programs, including the CIA’s enhanced interrogations and the Terrorist Surveillance Program
– Why the worst moment of the presidency was hearing accusations that race played a role in the federal government’s response to Hurricane Katrina, and a critical assessment of what he would have done differently during the crisis
– His deep concern that Iraq could turn into a defeat costlier than Vietnam, and how he decided to defy public opinion by ordering the troop surge
– His legislative achievements, including tax cuts and reforming education and Medicare, as well as his setbacks, including Social Security and immigration reform
– The relationships he forged with other world leaders, including an honest assessment of those he did and didn’t trust
– Why the failure to bring Osama bin Laden to justice ranks as his biggest disappointment and why his success in denying the terrorists their fondest wish–attacking America again–is among his proudest achievements A groundbreaking new brand of presidential memoir, Decision Points will captivate supporters, surprise critics, and change perspectives on eight remarkable years in American history–and on the man at the center of events.

The solvability of the functional equations of communicating Markov decision processes is demonstrated by an elementary application of the Brouwer fixed-point mapping theorem. The technical assumptions include finite state space and tinite or ( 1987 Academic Press. Inc. compact action spaces.

INTRODUCTION
The functional equations of undiscounted, stationary, semi-Markovian decision processes (MDPs) are [S, 63

of state i, 1 < i < N. The functional equations ( 1.1) are of interest becauseif they possesa solution pair {g, u}, then g is unique and equals the maximal possible expected reward per unit time, and is achieved by any policy which employs actions attaining the N maxima on the right side of (1.1). [2, Theorem 1; 9, Eq. (26)]. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate solvability of these functional equations under the following communicuting assumption:[ 11 Let R = i ig R 1i is recurrent for the transition probability matrix (tpm) of some policy in K z X, r2K(i)). Then all states in R communicate. That is, for each pair i, ,j~ R there exists a policy in K with tpm (say) P, such that (P”), > 0 for some integer n = n(i, ,j). This assumption is met if rtlery policy in K has a unichained tpm (unique closed irreducible set of states) but is much weaker. It is not the weakest possible existence condition (since one could glue together two communicating MDPs which have disjoint state spacesand fortuitously have identical gain rates) but it is met in all practical applications of finite-state MDPs known to the author. (See [S, 10, 121 for the weakest solvability conditions for these functions equations, and see [ 141 for a full characterization of the solution spacefor the relative values.) Note that the r part of the solution of (1.1) is not unique, since L’+ hl is a solution whenever v is, where h is any scalar and 1 is a vector all of whose components are unity. Additional freedom in ~1 may exist under the communicating assumption; Example 3. The existence proof is established by application of the BROUWER FIXED-POINT THEOREM [7]. IJ’DEE” is a nonempty, convex, closed, bounded set and (f Q: E” + E” is a continuous operator which maps D into itse[f; then Q has a ,fixed point on D.
The specialized choices of D and Q will be given. The present proof has the merits of simplicity and of clearly revealing the role of the communicating property. Its easy extension to compact (rather than finite) action sets is described in the last section, thereby illustrating the inherent simplicity of using the Brouwer approach for existence proofs. An alternative application of the Brouwer approach, for communicating MDPs, is given in [4, Theorem 11, but involves a much more complex choice of D.
