Empowers readers with the wisdom to win in every strategic situation.
"Freedom to chart one’s strategic destiny comes only to those who are game-aware enough to rise above the game and determined enough to change the game to their own advantage" writes David McAdams in this ground-breaking, paradigm-busting romp through the game theory of business and life. The reader will emerge as a "game-changer", more aware of the strategic interactions in their life and empowered with a set of methods to change those "games" to their advantage.

The "Game-Changer’s Toolkit" introduces six ways to change games, using the Prisoners’ Dilemma as a recurring example of a solvable strategic challenge. Six "Game-Changer Files" present a wide variety of pressing strategic problems, from how to keep prices low on the Internet to how to win the battle with infectious disease.

David McAdams is professor of business administration at Duke University's Fuqua School of Business and economics professor at Duke. Holding a PhD from Stanford's Graduate School of Business and previously associate professor at MIT Sloan, he is a distinguished scholar in microeconomic theory and game theory. McAdams applies his expertise to consulting in market design and strategic business challenges, aiding various firms in auction strategies and mission-critical decisions. He has authored Game-Changer: Game Theory and the Art of Transforming Strategic Situations (Norton, 2014) and instructs MBA and PhD courses on game theory and market design at Duke.
