Story4 out of 5 stars 59
A series of closely interrelated essays on game theory, this book deals with an area in which progress has been least satisfactory - the situations where there is a common interest as well as conflict between adversaries: negotiations, war and threats of war, criminal deterrence, extortion, tacit bargaining. It proposes enlightening similarities between, for instance, maneuvering in limited war and in a traffic jam; deterring the Russians and one's own children; the modern strategy of terror and the ancient institution of hostages.

Disappointed

I tried listening multiple times over a three week period and finally stopped after chapter 3. The theory may be good but it reads like text without good examples to support. Someone respond if I should go further..
