Synopsis "Theory of Games and Statistical Decisions: Wiley Publication in Statistics"

Theory of Games and Statistical Decisions is a comprehensive book written by David Blackwell and published by Wiley Publication in Statistics. The book discusses the mathematical theory of games and its applications in statistical decision-making. It covers a wide range of topics, including the theory of two-person zero-sum games, non-zero-sum games, and cooperative games. The book also explores the concepts of Bayesian decision theory, statistical decision theory, and game theory in social sciences. The book is divided into four parts, each of which covers a different aspect of the theory of games and statistical decisions. Part I introduces the basic concepts and principles of game theory, including the concept of Nash equilibrium, mixed strategies, and the minimax theorem. Part II focuses on non-zero-sum games, including the bargaining problem, the prisoner's dilemma, and the tragedy of the commons. Part III discusses cooperative games, including the Shapley value, the core, and the nucleolus. Finally, Part IV explores the applications of game theory in social sciences, including political science, economics, and sociology. Overall, Theory of Games and Statistical Decisions is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in the theory of games and its applications in statistical decision-making. It provides a comprehensive overview of the mathematical theory of games and its practical applications, making it an excellent reference for anyone interested in this field.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
