| Description: |
Deals with combinatorial game theory. This book provides an introduction to the subject and covers the core concepts needed to understand and play combinatorial games. Topics covered include symmetry and strategy stealing, the algebra of games, impartial, hot, and all-small games, and the partial order of games. |
| Synopsis: |
Combinatorial games are games of pure strategy involving two players, with perfect information and no element of chance. Starting from the very basics of gameplay and strategy, the authors cover a wide range of topics, from game algebra to special classes of games. Classic techniques are introduced and applied in novel ways to analyze both old and new games, several appearing for the first time in this book. |
