The concepts of game theory (rationality etc) now pervade much of social science, so that Professor Zagare's exposition of game theory and its applications (intended to "convert the unconverted and initiate the uninitiated") is very welcome.

Diverse examples give the reader an idea of how the theory can be applied to a wide range of situations.
