Description

This textbook represents an entry in the Industrial Organization market, bringing I/O analysis to the undergraduate level. The authors combine formal analysis with many practical applications. Consistent with modern analysis, the authors focus explicitly on the nature of strategic interaction and make extensive use of game theoretic tools. The presentation does not assume familiarity of calculus, however, it relies heavily on the ability to work through algebraic equations.
