Synopsis

This book introduces linear programming and game theory to the curious lowbrow. If you have a little college algebra under your belt, this book can teach you to understand the rationale behind these mathematical tools that have seen fruitful use in business, economics, and war strategy. The author himself had to learn these subjects with no formal training, and his explanations are written with the mathematically unsophisticated reader in mind. By covering both the what and why of linear programming and game theory, the author gives you everything you need to grasp the fundamentals—without getting bogged down in advanced mathematical concepts. Understanding these techniques in the abstract before applying them to real-world problems makes it possible for you to use them effectively in any field where they may prove useful.
