Title: Restoring Fun to Game Theory

Abstract: The author shows by example how game theory has an advantage over most other scientific subjects because it is applicable to numerous interesting and thought-provoking aspects of decision-making in economics, business, politics, social interactions, and indeed to much of everyday life, making it automatically appealing to students.
