Games, Strategies, and Managers

Managers are continually called on to make strategic decisions based on how someone else will act, and react, and this is exactly what game theory was invented to analyze. With the publication of John McMillan's 'Games, Strategies, and Managers, ' managers can now unlock the power of this bold way of thinking. The book strips away distracting details and provides insights into what is really going on in every negotiation and strategic decision.

John McMillan is Professor at the Graduate School of International Relations and Pacific Studies at the University of California at San Diego.
