A. Perea y Monsuwé

My main research interest is in epistemic game theory – a recent discipline which investigates how people reason before they make decisions. It focuses especially on situations of strategic interaction, in which several decision makers are involved. It has many applications to economics and other social sciences.

• Epistemic Game Theory: Reasoning and Choice 

Published at Cambridge University Press in June 2012.  

 

This is a textbook on epistemic game theory – the first in its kind – which I have written for bachelor students, master students and PhD students at universities. It can be used as a textbook for a general course in game theory, or for a more specialized course in epistemic game theory. The book is full of examples and exercises based on situations from everyday life.  

 

• Rationality in Extensive Form Games 

published at Kluwer Academic Publishers, Theory and Decision Library, in 2001. 

 

This book is a monograph on the theory of dynamic games. It explores various concepts that have been proposed in the literature for dynamic games, and investigates the relationships between these.
