Written engagingly and with agreeable humour, this book balances a light touch with a rigorous yet economical account of the theory of games and bargaining models. It provides a precise interpretation, discussion and mathematical analysis for a wide range of "game-like? problems in economics, sociology, strategic studies and war.There is first an informal introduction to game theory, which can be understood by non-mathematicians, which covers the basic ideas of extensive form, pure and mixed strategies and the minimax theorem. The general theory of non-cooperative games is then given a

Essays in Economic Theory, first published in 1983, combines two essays on game theory and its applications in economics. The first, ""Learning Behavior and the Noncooperative Equilibrium"", considers whether an adaptive justification, like those commonly available for the optimization models frequently employed elsewhere in economics, can be found for the Nash noncooperative equilibrium. The second essay, ""A Game of Fair Division"", was motivated by the desire to find attractive methods for solving allocation problems and bargaining disputes that are simple enough to provide useful alternati

À quel moment devrait-on adopter une stratégie commerciale agressive ? Comment prendre des décisions quand on ne dispose pas de toutes les informations ? Qu’est-ce qui rend la coopération environnementale internationale possible ? La théorie des jeux est l’étude de la manière dont nous prenons nos décisions quand l’issue de nos coups dépend des décisions d’autrui. Les économistes Ivan et Tuvana Pastine expliquent pourquoi, selon les circonstances, il nous arrive parfois de coopérer, parfois de nous battre et parfois d’agir d’une façon qui paraît totalement aléatoire. Le dessinateur primé Tom Humberstone donne vie, avec un style et une vigueur affirmés, à "La théorie des jeux". Ses illustrations vont aider les lecteurs à comprendre nos comportements, que ce soit en affaires, dans la société, en politique et même en biologie évolutive. Ce livre nous offre une nouvelle et alléchante perspective du monde dans lequel nous vivons.

This volume pursues the question of the emergence and coevolution of institutions and hierarchy, analyzes algorithms of strategy change in evolutionary game models, and takes a historical (history-of-economic-thought) point of view on the development of game theory during the cold war.

Throughout the history of economic ideas, it has often been asserted that experimentation is impossible, yet, in fact, history shows that the idea of 'experimentation' has always been important, and as such has been interpreted and put to use in many ways. Rich in historical detail, the essays in this topical volume deal with such issues as laboratory experimentation, the observed transition from a post-war economics to a contemporary discipline, the contrasting positions of Friedrich Hayek and Oskar Morgenstern, the socio-economic experiments proposed by Ernest Solvay and Knut Wicksell, and a rigorous examination of the way in which economic models can or cannot be construed as valid experiments producing useful knowledge. A testament to the variety of ways in which experimentation has been of importance in the creation of economic knowledge, these wide-ranging essays will interest those seeking to expand their historical understanding of the discipline, be they theorists, historians, philosophers, advanced students or researchers.
