An accessible, light-hearted exploration into game theory. Haim Shapira describes what it is, why it is important, and how it can help us in our daily lives.
This audiobook provides many humorous anecdotes and insightful examples of how our daily lives are affected by game theory. Game theory is the mathematical formalization of interactive decision-making - it assumes that each player’s goal is to maximize his/her benefit, whatever it may be. Players may be friends, foes, political parties, states, or any entity that behaves interactively, whether collectively or individually.
One of the problems with game analysis is the fact that, as a player, it’s very hard to know what would benefit each of the other players; some of us are not even clear about our own goals or what might actually benefit us. Haim Shapira uses multiple examples to explain what game theory is and how the different interactions between decision-makers can play out.
In this audiobook, you will:
Meet the Nobel Laureate John F. Nash and familiarize yourself with his celebrated equilibrium
Learn the basic ideas of the art of negotiation
Visit the gladiators’ ring and apply for a coaching position

Emotional impulsiveness also throws the game into passionate dubio.

This was the best intro to game theory I’ve ever encountered. Thank you so much!

I don’t know why it is that seemingly all of these game theory “experts” have such a shite knowledge of history.
Hey Haim, brush up on your Cold War history, why don’t you? Khruschev didn’t “braggardly challenge and provoke” (paraphrasing) the US by putting missiles in Cuba, he was responding to the US stationing its own (much larger and more numerous) nuclear missiles in Turkey at that time. Literally, the only point of the USSR stationing nuclear missiles in Cuba was to restore some semblance of nuclear parity in this regard.
And the USSR ultimately got what it wanted from the Cuban Missile Crisis, since the US had agreed to withdraw its nukes from Turkey in return from the USSR doing the same with Cuba.
So no, Kennedy didn’t “call Khruschev’s bluff” as you put it. Literally anyone with elementary knowledge of Cold War history should know this.
