About this Item

First edition, first printing. 8vo. xi, [1], 333, [3] pp. Original blue cloth, spine lettered and ruled in white, dust jacket (vertical crease along the title page, otherwise internally clean and unmarked; jacket price clipped with some light wear to extremities, notwithstanding an excellent copy). Princeton, New Jersey; Princeton University Press.  'A most prolific collaboration between Aumann and Shapley, starting in the late 1960s and culminating in 1974 with the publication of their book Values of Non-Atomic Games', in which they 'engaged in the challenging problem of extending value theory to the case of a continuum of players'. One of the 'remarkable' discoveries of their research is the diagonal principle, 'stating that in games with many players one need consider only coalitions whose composition constitutes a good sample of the grand coalition of all participants' (New Palgrave).
