Game Theory
Introduction and Application
"This is excellent
material for a textbook to introduce undergraduate students to game theory, without making
inordinate mathematical demands on them. I was impressed by the clarity of the
presentation.' Cathal Guiomard, University College Dublin
Covering all the essential
topics for undergraduate courses, this is the ideal student introduction to game theory.
The book sets out the basics of the subject in a non-technical way. All discussion and
explanation is clear, well structured, and entirely accessible to students of both
economics and business.
In addition to describing and
explaining the basic theory, Gome Theory uses illustrations and examples to show its
application to realistic, topical, and interesting problems-ranging from strategic
decision-making within companies to international environmental policy-making.
The book also features
exercises with accompanying solutions to allow the student to check progress throughout
the course, and a guide to further reading at the end of each chapter.
