Rock, Paper, Scissors


(4th Book Review)
                Game theory shows how we can or how to maximize gain in competition. In “Rock, Paper, Scissors”, physicist Len Fisher start the by the demonstration of game theory. It shows there that “The Best in You” is not meant to be the “Best in Everyone Else”, and by looking that incongruity, it can eventually emasculate your own self-interest. The virtuous newsflash in there, is that human beings were much cooperative.
            In the first chapter “Trapped in Matrix” primarily designates the prisoner’s dilemma and gives implication that a Nash equilibrium in a reasonable deception but a matrix graphics were not an informative either.  This chapter was quiet full of interesting examples and also explanations. The second one, offers a nice introductory about the different concepts of minimax and fair division. Fisher brightens impartial separation with a matching narrations. He never mined all the answers but he was already applying application of minimax principle. Fisher also discusses the principle of argued quantity, which mentioned before. In chapter three, was about the seven interesting problems of game theory, which Fisher said “The Seven Deadly Dilemmas”. Fisher offered a great instantaneous of such problems as a rider issue and the game of chicken. In the fourth chapter, was full of humor and it was all about the game “Rock, Paper, Scissor”. In this chapter, “Rock, Paper, Scissor” was used in conflict resolution. Situations and games which a stoppage was used in solving by the addition of different tactics and convert it to a “Rock, Paper, Scissor’s conditions. In the succeeding chapters, was all about cooperation’s, how to attain trust and change the unwilling into a “Trap of Prisoners Dilemma” and other unwanted consequences. The points were all quiet similar. It was about narratives and divergent examples of science.

            You can’t supposed that Fisher’s game-theory explanations was quiet triviality and idealistic. This book was a good to read and a noble accumulation for real-life illustrations.
