## Summary

Game theory is what happens when you take rational-choice theory and add other rational choosers. It is the formal mathematics of multi-agent decision — not a metaphor, a proof system. Key sections include: Game Theory Deep.; Opening The mathematics of strategy.; Chapter I Strategic-form games.; Chapter II Mixed strategies.; Chapter III Nash, with proof sketch.; Chapter IV Equilibrium refinements.; Chapter V Incomplete information.; Chapter VI Reverse game theory.; Chapter VII What mechanism design has accomplished.; Chapter VIII The Vickrey-Clarke-Groves mechanism..
