An Introduction to Game Theory

by Martin J. Osborne

An accessible introduction to game theory, the book explains core concepts such as strategic, extensive, and coalitional games, and extends to Bayesian and imperfect‑information games, repeated games, bargaining, evolutionary equilibrium, rationalizability, and max‑minimization. It defines each idea precisely and uses logical reasoning, requiring only basic mathematics and no prior knowledge of economics or related disciplines. Illustrations from economics, politics, biology, and other social sciences accompany every topic to show how the theory applies.
