Publisher's Synopsis
This up-to-date introduction to the theory and applications of game theory is accessible to anyone with a knowledge of basic mathematics, and non-mathematics students will find it easy to understand. Little other literature was or is available which looks at the areas of game theory which have developed in the last decade, including multi-stage games, bidding, evolutionary games and, to a lesser extent, analysis of options. The author's style is refreshing in a grey world.
