From Decision Theory to Game Theory

‘The book is engaging, well-structured, and well-written by a leading scholar in the field. It presents the key concepts in an exceptionally clear and simple way, making them accessible to readers with a minimal background in mathematics. I recommend the book for researchers and students who want to learn the epistemic foundations of game theory.’ Xiao Luo, National University of Singapore‘This is a thorough, comprehensive text, that treats decision making in a unified way for three classes of games: games with incomplete information, games with unawareness, and psychological games. The unified treatment makes it possible to bring out similarities and highlight differences. Perea brings the reader to the forefront of current research in an engaging way, with many illustrative examples.’ Joe Halpern, Cornell University
