## Description

Game Theory: An Introduction [Tadelis, Steven] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Game Theory: An Introduction

Review: A great textbook for college students or as a self-study for mathematically inclined readers - This book corresponds to material from the introductory course on game theory I took at Stanford from Steve Tadelis. One of the problems in game theory is that there are not good textbooks for college students/undergrads. Either the texts are more suitable for general audiences (I personally love "Thinking Strategically" and "The Art of Strategy" as supplemental reading but not as replacement textbooks), or they are way too technical and more suited for graduate work (like Fudenberg and Tirole's "Game Theory"). This book is a rare treat: it is precise mathematical treatment of game theory that is also fun to read. I'd recommend the reader be familiar with formal math proofs as well as have taking a course in probability theory (to understand Bayes Rule and expectation theory). I read the book from cover to cover and it reminded me why I enjoyed game theory so much. This is the text I'd recommend for anyone that wants to learn game theory in a rigorous fashion.
Review: Great balance of rigor and readability - This book is an excellent text for an advanced undergraduate course or a first-year graduate course. In my opinion, it hits the sweet spot in terms of balancing rigor and readability. It is rigorous in the sense that it includes precise mathematical definitions of key ideas and results, and in the sense that it is thorough (covering all the main topics and discussing important technical caveats when relevant). It is readable in the sense that it includes a wide variety of examples (both to motivate the topics and to illustrate ideas), and in the sense that it is very clearly written. The writing is not too chatty, but also not too formal, and from a formatting perspective the book is clean and free of all the colored boxes and bloated figures that plague textbooks these days (especially undergraduate textbooks).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to read yet comprehensive
*by S***K on September 4, 2013*

I was 'recommended' (not required) to purchase this book for a grad-level Game Theory class. I'm so glad I did! Our class textbook is a little too complex and it's easy to miss the bigger picture, but in this book by Tadelis, the concepts are thoroughly explained for the novice reader AND it has the details which provide the necessary depth to understand the topics. I like the examples, the manner of writing (on your level, not above or at you), and it's made understanding Game Theory much more practical. Overall, I highly recommend this book for a student (or an intellectually curious learner) to help understand the complexity (and fun) that is Game Theory.
