This is a must-read for anyone interested in the history, nature, and dynamics of games.The essays from prominent public intellectuals collected in this volume reflect an array of perspectives on the spectrum of conflict, competition, and cooperation, as well as a wealth of expertise on how games manifest in the world, how they operate, and how social animals behave inside them. They include previously unpublished material by former Cabinet minister Sayeeda Warsi, the philosopher A. C. Grayling, legal scholar Nicola Padfield, cycling coach David Brailsford, former military intelligence officer Frank Ledwidge, neuro-psychologist Barbara J. Sahakian, zoological ecologist Nicholas B. Davies, and the final work of the late Nobel laureate Thomas C. Schelling. This is a must-read for anyone interested in the history, nature, and dynamics of games.Introduction David Blagden and Mark de Rond; 1. Personal principles in the political game Sayeeda Warsi; 2.

He is widely published in the scholarly and popular press, has served as a witness for several Parliamentary inquiries, and consults for numerous policy organisations. Dr Blagden has also won the Royal United Service Institute's Trench Gascoigne Prize for original writing on defence and security. Mark de Rond is Professor of Organisational Ethnography at Judge Business School, University of Cambridge, and a Fellow of Darwin College, Cambridge.
