Approval Voting

This book presents a simple and logical potential electoral reform. Under this system, voters may vote for, or approve of, as many candidates as they like in multicandidate elections. Among the many benefits of approval voting are its propensity to elect the majority candidate, its relative invulnerability to insincere or strategic voting, and a probable increase in voter turnout.

Game Theory and National Security
(This theoretical work attempts to show how certain parts ...)
This theoretical work attempts to show how certain parts of game theory can be applied to the rigorous development and careful analysis of several critical problems that afflict the security of nations, from the deterrence of foes who might launch attacks to the stabilization of crises that could explode into wars. Distinguishing the book is the deductive character of the analysis, which enables the authors to go beyond basic strategic dilemmas, embellish them with a good deal of structure to capture the essential strategic features of the situations they model, and add solutions that are, in some sense, optimal.

In this illuminating and instructive survey, author Steven J. Brams demonstrates both the insights and the pitfalls that can result from applying game theoretic models to the analysis of problems in political science. Using plenty of real-life examples, Brams shows how game theory can explain and elucidate complex political situations, from warfare to presidential vetoes. In these cases and others, game theory's mathematical structure provides a rigorous, consistent method for formulating, analyzing, and solving strategic problems. Minimal mathematical background is necessary, making the book accessible to a wide audience of students and teachers of politics and social science, as well as other readers with a serious interest in politics. New preface to the Dover edition. 1975 edition.
