Modem game theory has evolved enonnously since its inception in the
1920s in the works ofBorel and von Neumann and since publication in
the 1940s of the seminal treatise "Theory of Games and Economic
Behavior" by von Neumann and Morgenstern. The branch of game theory
known as dynamic games is-to a significant extent-descended from
the pioneering work on differential games done by Isaacs in the
1950s and 1960s. Since those early decades game theory has branched
out in many directions, spanning such diverse disciplines as math-
ematics, economics, electrical and electronics engineering,
operations research, computer science, theoretical ecology,
environmental science, and even political science. The papers in
this volume reflect both the maturity and the vitalityofmodem day
game theoryin general, andofdynamic games, inparticular. The
maturitycan be seen from the sophistication ofthe theorems, proofs,
methods, and numerical algorithms contained in these articles. The
vitality is manifested by the range of new ideas, new applications,
the numberofyoung researchers among the authors, and the expanding
worldwide coverage of research centers and institutes where the
contributions originated.
