William Spaniel

For amateurs of game theory like me.

Great book. Very well explained. I didn't know anything about game theroy before, I feel that at least I have grabbed the core concepts now.

I enjoyed reading this for the most part, but I am not certain that the attempt to express it mathematically really adds to Spaniel's point. How can one realistically assign a value? He does make it clear that in considering why people do or do not act when a crime is committed, is in part due to what they think it may cost them, e.g. danger, dealing with the police, etc. It also discusses the seemingly odd fact that people are less likely to help when there are more bystanders.

Very dull.
