A collection of short interviews based on 5 questions presented to some of the most influential and prominent scholars in the field. We hear their views on game theory, its aim, scope, use, the future direction of game theory and how their work fits in.
Five out of five!
Game theory is a field that is currently developing so fast and in so many areas that it is difficult to keep track of new ideas, open problems and its current status as a tool of scientific inquiry. Further, having paid a continuous interest to the field for some years, I have often found myself thinking about how and why the different prominent theorists in the field work with their ideas and what they are personally trying to accomplish. To begin with I thought that one little book would have difficulties both giving me much of the overview I wanted as well as answering my curiosity - however I was wrong. The book is extremely interesting as well as entertaining; a must read for anybody interested in game theory!
