Overview

Now available in a Second Edition, Games of Strategy remains the most accessible principles-level text for courses in game theory, addressing a remarkably broad range of concepts in a narrative that is both clear and compelling. Using resonant real-world examples, the authors simplify difficult theoretic ideas, helping students see the value of strategic thinking in a variety of situations. The text has been carefully updated for this Second Edition, including thorough revisions of the sections on sequential- and simultaneous-move games and those on voting and auctioning.

This is an inviting introduction to game theory, offering students an engaging, comprehensive view of the discipline without assuming a prior knowledge of economics or complex mathematics (uses only high school algebra). Additionally, instructors will find a variety of useful pedagogical tools in the accompanying Instructor?s Manual, including student exercises and suggested classroom games and experiments.

Highlights

*Designed for the Introductory Student -Games of Strategy is the only game theory text available that is designed for the introductory student. Norton has the 'optimal sequential strategy' for more advanced game theory courses. In addition to Games of Strategy, Norton publishes more advanced game theory texts.

*Extensive Revision - Part Two has been completely revised for the Second Edition in order to streamline and focus the discussion to cover sequential- and simultaneous-move games.

*Lively and Relevant Examples - Throughout the text, the authors use examples familiar to students to apply game theory, like pop culture, sports, politics, etc.

    I used this as a reasonable accompaniment of the Teaching Companies (Dr. Scott Stevens) class of `Games People play'. The approach is not deeply mathematical, but it does take some effort to work through the examples and exercises. There are many practical examples such as online auctions, or economics. As someone who lived in Florida at the time of the hanging chad, the most exciting chapter was on voting systems, There are also fun cultural references, such as the 5 page discussion of the first season of Survivor on TV, or the movie The Princes Bride. I would have appreciated more biological examples in the chapter on evolutionary games. Readers of this would also enjoy Prisoner's Dilemma - by William Poundstone about John Von Neumann, Game Theory, and the Puzzle of the Bomb,

    Reviewed in the United States on 29 April 2009
    Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase
    This is a good game theory text book. It focuses on the analytical portion of GT, and presents a good explanation of how the concepts work without requiring an in-depth knowledge of math. This was the assigned textbook for my political theory class, for which the math requirement was HS algebra.
    If you're looking for an in-depth, math intensive game theory text, this is not your book, but if you're looking for an analytical overview, this book is well written and helpful.
