Respond to the question: Game theory summary text?

10/02/2008 08:29 AM by Steve; Game theory 'summary text'
This is a very basic question, but one with which I'd really appreciate some pointers.

I'm broadly familiar with what game theory/semantics is - having been introduced informally to some of the concepts around ten years ago in a graduate computer-science context. I am aware that the subject has moved on somewhat since then - and that I was only ever exposed to a narrow view of the field.

I am looking for a text (or texts) which will both bring me up-to-date with accepted state of the art - and to act as a refresher as I've now forgotten much of the jargon. I'm not looking for a 'popular science' book or a book that focuses narrowly on one specific aspect of game theory.

Any recommendation would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Steve
