Special Display – Game Theory

Come and visit our special display on Game theory.

Games are played whenever people interact, wherever there are strategies to adopt and outcomes or prizes to win. And that means games are played everywhere: from economics to evolutionary biology, from prison escapes to online poker, and from romantic liaisons to Cold War stand-offs.

Game theory is the study of such games –what happens when they are played rationally, and how we can predict their outcomes.*

At Doriot library from Monday 2 to 15 February
