Game theory provides a broad framework for describing and analyzing how people act in "strategic" circumstances. This course focuses on major topics in game theory and seeks to describe the informal fundamental principles that are frequently obscured by mathematical formulations. Economic theory, political science, psychology, sociology, biology, and computer science are just a few of the fields where game theory has been used.
