After a brief introduction, the authors begin with a chapter devoted to combinatorial games--a topic neglected or treated minimally in most other texts. The focus then shifts to two-person zero-sum games and their solutions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere the authors present the simplex method based on linear programming for solving these games and develop within this presentation the required background. The final chapter presents some of the fundamental ideas and tools of non-zero-sum games and games with more than two players, including an introduction to cooperative game theory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book is suitable for a\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CRC Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51019231461719,"sku":"9781032811802","price":56.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781032811802.jpg?v=1750779628","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/introducing-game-theory-and-its-applications-9781032811802","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
