GAME THEORY FOR EVERYDAY LIFE
Why do you always lose arguments even when you're right? Why do your threats to your kids never work? Why did you feel like you lost in your last salary negotiation?
The answer: you're playing a game whose rules you don't know.
This is the practical beginner's guide to game theory-no formulas, no graphs, no academic jargon. Just actionable strategies you can use starting today in negotiations, relationships, parenting, teamwork, and financial decisions. Game theory isn't about casinos or equations. It's the science of making better decisions when your outcome depends on what others decide. And you use it every day without knowing it: when negotiating your salary, arguing with your partner, choosing lanes in traffic.
Inside, you'll discover why distrust destroys work teams and how to break the cycle, how to "anchor" a negotiation to win before it starts, and what to do when no one wants to give in first during an argument. You'll learn why your punishment threats fail and how to design incentives that actually work, how to stop sabotaging your future self and beat procrastination, and why trying to "win" in your marriage makes you lose long-term.
Whether you want to understand game theory without studying economics, you're looking for practical tools rather than abstract theory, or you're simply frustrated by negotiations where you feel you lose, this book connects concepts like Nash equilibrium, the prisoner's dilemma, and negotiation theory to your real life. No prior knowledge required.
The book includes 30 chapters plus 2 practical appendices covering the 10 most useful games and the cognitive biases that sabotage your decisions. Perfect for readers of "Thinking, Fast and Slow," "Getting to Yes," "Predictably Irrational," and anyone interested in behavioral economics, decision-making, or practical psychology.
