Game Theory And Economic Modelling

Zusatztext 'Kreps has written a book that makes a sincere attempt to demystify game theory for the uninitiated and set the stage for a serious appraisal of the scope and limitations of game theory ... it does manage to convey a flavour of the excitement that comes from grappling with strategic behaviour! and hopefully should convince the reader with an open mind that game theoretic questions and applications are abstractions of relevant economic issues.'Anindya Sen!
