The Game's Afoot!: Game Theory in Myth and Paradox (Student Mathematical Library, V. 5)

This is a very short book and is supposed to be an easy read. It mostly is, but some of the parts required a bit of mathematics so I had to skip them (the part on differential games - requires optimal control theory).Some explanations were way too brief, but I guess if you knew the material from before it would be a useful quick review.Overall, it is a nice book with many interesting examples. But it might be a good idea to combine it with a book that explains more of game theory: try "Game theory for applied economsts" by Robert Gibbons or something more general and non-technical like "Moral Calculations" by Laszlo Mero.

There were many places where the text did not match the figures. A matrix entry was 0, and it was clearly meant to be D. The terminology often didn't match the illustrations.
