__Classics in Game Theory__ assembles in one sourcebook the basic contributions to the field that followed on the publication of __Theory of Games and Economic Behavior__ by John von Neumann and Oskar Morgenstern (Princeton, 1944). The theory of games, first given a rigorous formulation by von Neumann in a in 1928, is a subfield of mathematics and economics that models situations in which individuals compete and cooperate with each other.
