Description

N-person game theory analyzes contests in which there are more than two sets of conflicting interests, for example a hand of poker or wide-scale warfare. In this sequel to Two-Person Game Theory, the author introduces the necessary mathematical notation (mainly set theory), presents basic concepts, discusses a variety of models, and provides applications to social situations.
