His forecasts, for everyone from the CIA to major international companies, have an extraordinary 90% success rate.
In this fascinating and immensely readable book he explains how you can use Game Theory to your own advantage - to win a legal dispute, advance your career and even get the best possible price for your car. Prediction will change your understanding of the world - both now and in the future.
