Economists Avinash Dixit, Susan Skeath and David H. Reiley present an introduction to game theory and strategic thinking. Using examples from business, politics, sports and everyday life, they explain sequential and simultaneous games, Nash equilibrium, mixed strategies, repeated games, bargaining, auctions and voting. Requiring little mathematics, the book shows students how to analyze strategic situations and make better decisions when outcomes depend on the choices of others.
