This comprehensive textbook introduces readers to the principal
ideas and applications of game theory, in a style that combines
rigor with accessibility. Steven Tadelis begins with a concise
description of rational decision making, and goes on to discuss
strategic and extensive form games with complete information,
Bayesian games, and extensive form games with imperfect
information. He covers a host of topics, including multistage and
repeated games, bargaining theory, auctions, rent-seeking games,
mechanism design, signaling games, reputation building, and
information transmission games. Unlike other books on game theory,
this one begins with the idea of rationality and explores its
implications for multiperson decision problems through concepts
like dominated strategies and rationalizability. Only then does it
present the subject of Nash equilibrium and its derivatives.
