Game Theory and Strategy by Philip D Straffin Jr

This book pays careful attention to applications of game theory in a wide variety of disciplines. The applications are treated in considerable depth. The book assumes only high school algebra, yet gently builds to mathematical thinking of some sophistication. Game Theory and Strategy might serve as an introduction to both axiomatic mathematical thinking and the fundamental process of mathematical modelling. It gives insight into both the nature of pure mathematics, and the way in which mathematics can be applied to real problems.
'Game Theory and Strategy is an elegant, crystal-clear expository workKey concepts are emphasized and clearly explained.' Nature
