Game Theory and Applications

Game Theory and Applications outlines game theory and proves its validity by examining it alongside the neoclassical paradigm. This book contends that the neoclassical theory is the exceptional case, and that game theory may indeed be the rule. The papers and abstracts collected here explore its recent development and suggest new research directions. Key Features * Explains many of the recent central developments in game theory * Highlights new research directions in economic theory which surpass the neoclassical paradigm * Includes game-theoretical analyses in economics, political science, and biology * Written by leading game theorists, economists, political scientists, and biologists
