Title: Game theory and pragmatics
Description: "In this edited volume a number of leading scholars investigate which factors are favourable to the emergence and sustenance of linguistic rules, and how we use rationality principles to infer what is communicated in actual conversation. (Evolutionary) game theory provides the unified framework in which these issues are addressed and the introduction to the volume provides the reader with enough background in game theory to follow the discussion."--Jacket.
