Game Theory: A Simple Introduction by K. H. Erickson is an introductory nonfiction guide to the logic of strategic decision making. Published as part of the Simple Introductions line, it presents game theory as a practical framework rather than as a heavily mathematical discipline. The book introduces core tools such as the game matrix, the prisoners dilemma, dominant and mixed strategies, zero sum games, Pareto efficiency, Nash equilibrium, and asymmetric information. Its purpose is to help general readers understand how choices change when outcomes depend not only on one decision maker, but also on the anticipated decisions of others. Erickson uses accessible examples from business, social behavior, public goods, long term relationships, advertising, and familiar models such as hawk dove and chicken games. The result is a compact primer aimed at readers who want conceptual clarity, everyday relevance, and enough analytical structure to recognize strategic patterns without needing advanced mathematics.
