| Sep 13, 2013 at 15:53 | comment | added | G. Bach | For the class on game theory that I took the past semester, one of the recommended readings was "a course in game theory" (osbourne & rubinstein). With around 300 pages, that seemed to be accessible. Another, more voluminous book on the matter would be "algorithmic game theory" by nisan et al. That one is roughly 800 pages and seems to be very detailed. You will find, however, that game theory is very much a mathematical discipline, as is most of theoretical computer science. The trouble you may have is that it requires more knowledge of analysis than for example efficient algorithms would. | |
