商品描述
This textbook introduces fundamental concepts of game theory and demonstrates its uses and application in the social sciences. Written in plain English and without overwhelming mathematical jargon, it serves as an invaluable resource for undergraduate students in economics, law, political sciences, and related social sciences. Starting from non-cooperative games and progressing to cooperative games, it explores a wide range of topics, including the analysis of zero-sum games, voting rules and their practical implications, and other applications of game theory. Uniquely, it emphasizes cooperative concepts and their normative applications, providing a fresh perspective.
With "Game Theory for the Social Sciences", readers will be equipped with the analytical tools to analyze conflict resolution, bargaining strategies, cooperative decision-making, and the dynamics of power relationships. Through engaging examples drawn from real-world scenarios, readers will develop a solid understanding of how game theory can be applied to diverse fields in social sciences.
"Pierre Dehez offers a consistent kit of classic game theoretic tools, from equilibrium concepts to bargaining solutions and power indices, all illustrated with insightful examples and applications."
Françoise Forges, Professor of Economics, Université Paris Dauphine-PSL
"This book is written clearly and pedagogically without resorting to difficult mathematics. It provides many different and interesting examples from problems of fair sharing, bargaining to voting systems and many others. It is a perfect introduction to this subject too often quoted but too often misunderstood."
Alan Kirman, Directeur d'études, Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales, Paris, and Emeritus Professor, Aix-Marseille University
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本教科書介紹了博弈論的基本概念,並展示其在社會科學中的用途和應用。以簡單易懂的英語撰寫,並不使用過於複雜的數學術語,對於經濟學、法律、政治科學及相關社會科學的本科生來說,這是一本非常寶貴的資源。從非合作博弈開始,逐步進入合作博弈,探討了包括零和博弈的分析、投票規則及其實際影響,以及博弈論的其他應用等廣泛主題。這本書獨特地強調合作概念及其規範性應用,提供了一個全新的視角。
透過《社會科學的博弈論》,讀者將獲得分析衝突解決、談判策略、合作決策及權力關係動態的分析工具。通過從現實情境中提取的引人入勝的例子,讀者將對博弈論如何應用於社會科學的各個領域有一個扎實的理解。
「Pierre Dehez 提供了一套一致的經典博弈論工具,包括均衡概念、談判解決方案和權力指數,所有這些都通過深刻的例子和應用進行說明。」
—— Françoise Forges,巴黎多芬大學經濟學教授
「這本書清晰且具教學性,沒有訴諸於困難的數學。它提供了許多不同且有趣的例子,從公平分配問題、談判到投票系統等,涵蓋了許多其他主題。這是對這個經常被引用但又常常被誤解的主題的完美介紹。」
—— Alan Kirman,巴黎高等社會科學研究院研究主任,艾克斯-馬賽大學名譽教授
