A short talk on game theory I gave at the Nammour Symposium at Sacramento State. I cover the classic issue of nuclear deterrence and some of my own research on the death penalty.

To be completely honest, I wasn't wholly satisfied with this talk. Originally it was over an hour long, so I had to drastically cut it down for time and the end product suffered. On top of that, I was venturing out of my comfort zone by talking about game theory, a subject that I am far from an expert in. But que sera, I suppose I'll let you decide what you think of it.
