This second edition of Lessons in Play reorganizes the presentation of the popular original text in combinatorial game theory to make it even more widely accessible. Starting with a focus on the essential concepts and applications, it then moves on to more technical material. Still written in a textbook style with supporting evidence and proofs, the authors add many more exercises and examples and implement a two-step approach for some aspects of the material involving an initial introduction, examples, and basic results to be followed later by more detail and abstract results.
Features
- Employs a widely accessible style to the explanation of combinatorial game theory
- Contains multiple case studies
- Expands further directions and applications of the field
- Includes a complete rewrite of CGSuite material
