In my reading notes on the page [[Game Theory - A Very Short Introduction]], I was able to connect many of the concepts covered in the book to a more rigorous and quantitative mathematical presentation of the same ideas, which helped to make the concepts covered by the book more "real".

			My notes on Chapter 2 took the concept of mixed Nash equilibrium and mixed strategies and applied it to the Shadowrun RPG game.

			In my opinion, this book's content is really engaging, even though it is light on the mathematical details, and focuses on things that are both significant and also interesting. If you have references, a tool, or a friend who can help fill in some of those deeper mathematical details, then this book stops feeling too fluffy, and starts feeling like a rich gateway for plugging into different fascinating topics.
