Game Theory 101 Full Course - Game Theory 101 (#1): Introduction

Game Theory 101: The Complete Textbook on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Game-Theory-101-Complete-Textbook/dp/1492728152/ http://gametheory101.com/courses/game-theory-101/ What is game theory? Why should we study it? Game Theory 101 is a free introductory course to the basics of game theory. Over the course of the next few dozen videos, we will learn about strict dominance, iterated elimination of strictly dominated strategies, pure strategy Nash equilibrium, mixed strategy Nash equilibrium, the mixed strategy algorithm, weak dominance, backward induction, subgame perfect equilibrium, comparative statics, and more. This video outlines the course. The lectures will follow the textbook linked above. I strongly recommend purchasing it---the digital version is only $4.99 and it spells out everything we will be doing in much greater depth and with more examples. However, you should be fine without it. Let's have some fun!
