In everyday life we must often reach decisions while knowing that
the outcome will not only depend on our own choice, but also on the
choices of others. These situations are the focus of epistemic game
theory. Unlike classical game theory, it explores how people may
reason about their opponents before they make their final choice in
a game. Packed with examples and practical problems based on
stories from everyday life, this is the first textbook to explain
the principles of epistemic game theory. Each chapter is dedicated
to one particular, natural way of reasoning. The book then shows
how each of these ways of reasoning will affect the final choices
that can rationally be made and how these choices can be found by
iterative procedures. Moreover, it does so in a way that uses
elementary mathematics and does not presuppose any previous
knowledge of game theory.
