Game Theory and Politics

Game Theory and Politics

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
In this illuminating and instructive survey, Brams demonstrates both the insights and the pitfalls that can result from applying game theoretic models to the analysis of problems in political science. Using real-life examples, he shows how game theory can explain and elucidate complex political situations, from warfare to presidential vetoes. In these cases and others, game theory’s mathematical structure provides a rigorous, consistent method for formulating, analyzing, and solving strategic problems. Minimal mathematical background is necessary, making this book accessible to a wide audience of students and teachers of politics and the social sciences as well as other readers with a serious interest in politics. 1975 ed. 24 figures
