About the Book

The telecom war between Reliance Jio and Airtel was only a preamble to the impending battle between Google and Jio. Nitish Kumar broke the mahagathbandhan while seeming to try to bend RJD to his will. All the schmoozing between Trump and Xi hasn't reduced the North Korean nuclear threat. Could we have predicted these outcomes before they actually happened? Yes we could have--not with IQ or EQ, but with 'Game Theoretic Quotient'. A new intelligence, a new way of looking at the world. Game Sutra highlights the underlying strategic considerations of entities as diverse as heads of state, bitcoin miners and CEOs of internet companies to explain their decisive choices. Immerse yourself in its heady mix of cogent fact and smart analysis to develop your 'game theoretic quotient'. Your world will never be the same again.

About the Author :
Rohit Prasad is a Professor of Economics at MDI, Gurgaon. He has a PhD in economic theory from SUNY Stony Brook, USA. He is the author of Start-up Sutra, a popular book on entrepreneurship, and Blood Red River, which examines the contours of development conflict in India. He is also the co-author of The Dynamics of Spectrum Management, a monograph on the economics of the allocation of radio frequencies. This book marks a milestone in his journey of escape from the technical training of his graduate school years.

Review :
'Rohit Prasad has well and truly rescued game theory from game theorists and brought it to the masses. The excellent exercises train the reader's mind in game-theoretic way of thinking without using any mathematics. It's fascinating!'--Sumit Sarkar, "Professor, XLRI" 'Rohit Prasad's wonderful book Game Sutra: Rescuing Game Theory from the Game Theorists is a collection of dozens of real-life applications of game theory. Written in English--that is, without mathematics--it is highly accessible to the educated general public. Entertaining, informative and fresh, it is strongly recommended to anyone who is interested in discovering how human interaction works.'--Noble Laureate Robert J. Aumann, "Economic Sciences, 2005" 'Rohit has written a delightful book, bringing valuable insights from the abstruse field of game theory to bear on current economic and political events, especially in the context of India. His work is full of innovative analyses, yet written in a style that is witty, engaging and accessible to everyone. A must-read!' --Pradeep Dubey, "Leading Professor, Stony Brook University; Visiting Professor, Cowles Foundation, Yale University" 'Rohit Prasad brings a unique, fascinating and entirely convincing theoretical approach towards unravelling the most significant and complex economic and political questions of contemporary India. The result is a brilliant analysis of what determines human action and behaviour. Marrying game theory and Indian politics has never been sexier and more fun, let alone illuminative.' --Sanjoy Majumder, "Vice Managing Editor, BBC India" 'Rohit Prasad brings game theory out of the ivory towers of academia and shows that it is possible to use pristine mathematical theories to argue cohesively in the relatively inchoate world of politics and social change. Rohit's grasp of the subject, and elegant prose, creates powerful insights into issues of the day drawn from the fields of politics, business and economics. This book is truly a revelation, written in an easy, accessible--yet rigorous--style. It may well mark the beginning of a new trajectory for economic theory and social commentary alike.' --Raghav Bahl, "Co-founder, Network 18; Co-founder, Quintillion Media Pvt. Ltd" 'This rich, instructive and entertaining collection of applications of game theory is a must-read for all who want to navigate successfully in India's complex business, political and social environments.' --Professor Avinash Dixit, "John J. F. Sherrerd '52 University Professor of Economics, Emeritus Princeton University"
