Theory of Games and Economic Behavior (Commemorative… by John von Neumann

One of the titanic founding works of Game Theory. Requires an extensive background of mathematics to understand, but it is very comprehensive, covering many types of games (including a version of poker). Some significant advances have been made in the field after this was published (Nash, etc.) but still something worth reading if you can handle it.
