Power of the Nobel Prize
Today, at the beginning of the game theory lecture,
"Class, since this year the nobel prize of economics is given to two distinguished game theorists, our teaching schedule will be changed as to incorporate their ideas, the rest of our course material will be entirely different from last year. And I have put the link of the 2005 nobel prize advanced information on our course webpage, this is what we will cover next lesson." He announced.
My god, how can an undergraduate student understand this year nobel prize winner's ideas? Moreover, there is no textbook for that, only the notes provided by the Royal Swedish Academy of Science!
It seems that my only academic investment this semester--- buying the game theory textbook (Games of Strategy), is a failure. Oh, I nearly forgot to tell you that, he also said, "Look at the section 4 'Recommended readings" of the pdf file, you can find our texbook by Dixit and Skeath (2004), so you guys really have made a good choice." What else can I say?
