{"product_id":"game-theory","title":"Game Theory","description":"\u003cp\u003eGames are played whenever people interact, wherever there are strategies to adopt and outcomes or prizes to win. And that means games are played everywhere: from economics to evolutionary biology, from prison escapes to online poker, and from romantic liaisons to Cold War stand-offs.\r\n\r\nGame theory is the study of such games — what happens when they are played rationally, and how we can predict their outcomes. This lively *Very Short Introduction* shows how game theory can be understood without mathematical equations, and how, from one simple premise, there springs a remarkably rich theory that has already had a profound effect on the sciences, and may yet revolutionize disciplines as far apart as psychology, ethics, and politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e184 pages | Published November 2, 2007\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GARDNERS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63981844857181,"sku":"9780199218462","price":12.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0978\/3459\/8749\/files\/content_8244f86f-87b4-4a4c-a8f9-4211cc70ea1f.jpg?v=1774466865","url":"https:\/\/www.thebookmark.ie\/products\/game-theory","provider":"The Bookmark ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
