Game of Thrones, este, Game Theory.

“Rock, Papers, Scissors” by Len Fisher is an introductory course to game theory and how it can be applied to everyday problems or real world problems. The topics which he covers ranges from everyday situations and also include actual incidents. The book also shows various mathematical solutions to everyday and common problems we encounter when dealing with others.


Game Theory is a study of strategic interactions or decision making in which it produce outcomes with respect to your preferences. According to Len Fisher, there is another side to game theory, it’s not just about competition, it’s also about cooperation and collaboration.


Game theory is not just some more math stuff on games work, it can also be applied to a whole lot of things like deciding what to wear or even to some biological problems. This book shows us varying degrees and methods especially communication to win or achieve mutual satisfaction in a confrontation.



I like how he wrote about cooperation and trust. It was fun learning from this book especially since I don’t know a thing about game theory or that it even exist. Most of the time though, I find it a bit boring. But Len Fisher’s ten tips for cooperation in everyday life was good.
