 Great analysis of common strategic behavior problems December 27, 2001
6 out of 9 found this review helpful
This is a great example of how the rigor of game theory can give startling insights into outcomes of common situations. Although I'm no mathematician or economist, all business people are at some point required to base their decisions on how they think others will behave. This book provides some great frameworks for structuring that thought process.

Altough it's often just theory, is a unique book, rxpressing the Chicago school's view on law. Do not expect something you can use practically.
A pathbreaking work of importance and clarity April 30, 1998
23 out of 26 found this review helpful
This book popularizes and extends a new approach (non-cooperative game theory) to the economic analysis of law. Readable and concise, this book is a must for students and scholars wishing to understand the ways in which legal rules can be usefully modeled as non-cooperative games. As a professor in the discipline, I am awed by the important and brilliant scholarship presented in this book with superb skill.
