The telecom war between reliance jib and Airtel was only a Preamble to the impending battle between Google and Jim nitish Kumar broke the mahagathbandhan while seeming to try to bend red to his will. All the schmoozing between Trump and XI hasn’t reduced the North Korean nuclear threat. could we have predicted these outcomes before they actually happened? yes we could have—not with IQ or EQ, but with ‘game theoretic Quotient’. a new intelligence, a new way of looking at the world. game sutra highlights the underlying strategic considerations of entities as diverse as heads of state, bit Co in miners and CEO of Internet companies to explain their decisive choices. Immerse yourself in its heady mix of cogent fact and smart analysis to develop your ‘game theoretic Quotient’. your world will never be the same again. excerpt ‘game theorists distrust languages other than Mathematics because they carry within themselves an inherent level of ambiguity. At best, they are willing to concede that, where possible, Verbal proofs of mathematical theorems should be attempted. However, ambiguity is an unavoidable feature of social Science. Totalitarian efforts to eliminate it altogether amount to robbing the discourse of the breath of life. It is time the game theorists opened their minds and hearts to languages other than Mathematics. It is time they overcame their deep discomfort with ambiguity. It is time they reached out to their emotional selves. In fact, game theory is far too important to be left to the game theorists alone. A rescue operation needs to be mounted, an operation where mathematical sophistication is less important than an unwavering focus on the purpose of the intellectual exercise—to create and communicate a new understanding of the world. This book may be seen as a modest start in that direction.’.
