Drawing on Prof. Sağlam’s many years of academic expertise and teaching experience, the work presents the core concepts of game theory through an intuitive framework before deepening the discussion with mathematical analysis, enabling students to grasp the material in a multidimensional way.

Mastering Game Theory covers a wide range of topics, extending from strategic and extensive-form noncooperative games to mechanism design and cooperative games. Each chapter begins with a clear introduction to the subject, continues with detailed technical analysis, and concludes with application-focused examples.
