Abstract
This chapter introduces a new approach to belief revision that was recently presented in [182] and has been further developed in [190, 183, 185, 189, 187, 184, 341]. It provides us with a mechanism for belief change that is in important respects more general than previous approaches. Descriptor revision is based on two new formal constructions: A generalized notation for success conditions and the application of choice mechanisms directly to the set of potential outcomes of the belief change operation.
