In this groundbreaking book, principles derived from Game Theory are applied to family law, an arena often plagued by bitterness and what appears to be irrational behavior. The principles of Game Theory—the scientific study of how and why people make decisions—lends itself to changing the practice of family law in our traditional divorce system (one that often leads to rational but self-defeating, sometimes destructive decision-making) into one that expands the size of pie and provides win-win solutions for all parties.
