具体描述

This book introduces one of the most powerful tools of modern economics to a wide audience: those who will later construct or consume game-theoretic models. Robert Gibbons addresses scholars in applied fields within economics who want a serious and thorough discussion of game theory but who may have found other works overly abstract. Gibbons emphasizes the economic applications of the theory at least as much as the pure theory itself; formal arguments about abstract games play a minor role. The applications illustrate the process of model building--of translating an informal description of a multi-person decision situation into a formal game-theoretic problem to be analyzed. Also, the variety of applications shows that similar issues arise in different areas of economics, and that the same game-theoretic tools can be applied in each setting. In order to emphasize the broad potential scope of the theory, conventional applications from industrial organization have been largely replaced by applications from labor, macro, and other applied fields in economics. The book covers four classes of games, and four corresponding notions of equilibrium: static games of complete information and Nash equilibrium, dynamic games of complete information and subgame-perfect Nash equilibrium, static games of incomplete information and Bayesian Nash equilibrium, and dynamic games of incomplete information and perfect Bayesian equilibrium.

读后感

很多评论说通俗易懂。 这本其实不好读，翻阅一下，没有非常复杂的公式。 但是博弈论就是这样，语言逻辑非常密集，读过程中，哪一个稍微疏忽，下面就不明白。 精神高度集中就很累，博弈论更像是逻辑学而不太有数学感。 建模过程的高度抽象也是很训练，因为同样事物，你建立的就...  

中文版的错误很多，不知道英文版的怎么样。我是在大三学的，先前已学过基本的产业组织理论，即相当于基本的完全信息静态博弈和完全信息动态博弈。一开始看真的看得很费神。学期结束之后就掌握得较好了。当然，入门…  

Great introductory text! I read (literally) it aloud for 3 times to engrave the intuition on my cortex.  

有很多内容中文版写的很绕，有种一字一句硬翻下来的感觉，定义很繁琐，同样一个名词，多个定义，不够严谨。原版的书没看过，应该值得一看。  

我觉得接受正统经济学研究训练就是学习经济理论和掌握分析工具【当然真正要做好研究还必须能将二者熟练结合，然而这是以后的事了，在学生阶段尚不需要过多接触，该方面类似的书有埃斯里奇的《应用经济学研究方法》经科版】而博弈论就是一种重要的分析方法。 基础...  

用户评价

一本很好的入门教材

最喜欢的博弈论教材。大多本科教材过分迁就本科生的数学水平，而博士生教材则把时间花在了只有做理论才需要的严格性上。这本适合想做应用经济学的人。

虽说大家都说这是初级入门教材、、、但是我觉得我学到这个程度就够了吧、、、而且里面还有很多没吃透的感觉需要找时间再回看一遍、、

习题啊...想要答案555
