There are a number of fine game theory books.

My favorite, and probably the most comprehensive, is

Drew Fudenberg and Jean Tirole, "Game Theory", 1991 MIT Press


Alternatives include:-

Robert Gibbons, "Game Theory for Applied Economists", 1992

David Kreps, "A Course in Microeconomic Theory", 1990 (part 3, I think)

Roger Myerson's book on game theory


A brief survey can be found as chapter 5 of "Handbook of Industrial Economics", ed
Richard Schmalensee & Robert Willig (survey by Fudenberg and Tirole), North Holland

Alternatively see chapter 11 of Tirole's "Theory of Industrial Organization", MIT Press

Hope this helps.

If anyone requires full details of any of these titles, I am happy to send them directly.
