博弈论的推理渗透到经济理论中,并广泛应用于其他社会和行为科学。马丁·奥斯本(Martin J. Osborne)的《博弈论导论》(An Introduction to Game Theory International Edition)介绍了博弈论的主要原理,并展示了如何将其用于理解经济、社会、政治和生物现象。这本书以一种易于理解的方式介绍了理论背后的主要思想,而不是它们的数学表达。所有的概念都被精确地定义,逻辑推理贯穿始终。这本书要求理解基础数学,但不假设经济学,政治学或其他社会或行为科学的具体知识。覆盖范围包括战略游戏的基本概念,完美信息的广泛游戏和联盟游戏;贝叶斯游戏和不完美信息的广泛游戏的更高级主题;以及重复游戏,讨价还价理论,进化均衡,合理化和最大最小化的主题。这本书提供了来自社会和行为科学的各种各样的插图。每个主题都有突出理论观点的例子和演示如何使用理论的插图。
Game-theoretic reasoning pervades economic theory and is used widely in other social and behavioural sciences. An Introduction to Game Theory International Edition, by Martin J. Osborne, presents the main principles of game theory and shows how they can be used to understand economics, social, political, and biological phenomena. The book introduces in an accessible manner the main ideas behind the theory rather than their mathematical expression. All concepts are defined precisely, and logical reasoning is used throughout. The book requires an understanding of basic mathematics but assumes no specific knowledge of economics, political science, or other social or behavioural sciences. Coverage includes the fundamental concepts of strategic games, extensive games with perfect information, and coalitional games; the more advanced subjects of Bayesian games and extensive games with imperfect information; and the topics of repeated games, bargaining theory, evolutionary equilibrium, rationalizability, and maxminimization. The book offers a wide variety of illustrations from the social and behavioural sciences. Each topic features examples that highlight theoretical points and illustrations that demonstrate how the theory may be used.
