This book represents the earliest elear, detailed, precise exposition of the central ideas and results of game theory and related decision-making models-unencum-bered by technical mathematical details. It offers a comprehensive, time-tested conceptual introduction, with a social science orientation, to a complex of ideas related to game theory including decision theory, modern utility theory, the theory of statistical decisions, and the theory of social welfare functions.

The first three chapters provide a general introduction to the theory of games including utility theory. Chapter 4 treats two-person, zero-surn games. Chapters 5 and 6 treat two-person, nonzero-sum games and concepts developed in an attempt to meet some of the deficiencies in the yon Neumann-Morgenstern theory.Chapters 7-12 treat n-person games beginning with the yon Neumann-Morgenstern theory and reaching into many newer developments. The last two chapters, 13 and 14, discuss individual and group decision making. Eight helpful appendixes present proofs of the famous minimax theorem, several geometric interpretations of two-person zero-sum games, solution procedures, infinite games, sequential eom-pounding of games, and linear programming.

Thought-provoking and clearly expressed, Games and Decisions: Introduction and Critical Surveut is designed for the non-mathematician and requires no advanced mathematical training. It will be welcomed by economists concerned with economic theory, political scientists and sociologists dealing with confliet of interest, experimental psychologists studying decision making, management scien-tists, philosophers, statisticians and a wide range of other decision-makers. It will likewise be indispensable for students in courses in the mathematical theory of games and linear programming.
