| Summary/Abstract |
Game theory means rigorous strategic thinking. It’s the art of anticipating your opponent’s next moves. Though parts of game theory involve simple common sense, much is counterintuitive, and it can only be mastered by developing a new way of seeing the world. Using a diverse array of rich case studies—from pop culture, TV, movies, sports, politics, and history—the authors show how nearly every business and personal interaction has a game-theory component to it. Mastering game theory will make you more successful in business and life, and this lively book is the key to that mastery.

| Summary/Abstract |
From their youngest years, our children are innately curious. They explore the world around them through play, imagination, and discovery. They build meaning, they create understanding, and they unabashedly share their learning. It's in this process that they find joy in life and relevance in the world around them.
Why, then, do some of our students become disconnected from their learning in school? Where does this natural curiosity go? And how, as educators, can we ensure all of our students experience a meaningful and wonder-filled journey through their education?
It's these questions that Trevor MacKenzie, author of the critically acclaimed book Dive into Inquiry, answers in Inquiry Mindset. Co-written with kindergarten teacher Rebecca Bathurst-Hunt, Inquiry Mindset offers a highly accessible journey through inquiry in the younger years. You'll learn how to . . .
Empower your learners, increase engagement, and accelerate achievement.
Harness the wonderings and curiosities of your students and leverage them into powerful learning opportunities.
Cultivate an inquiry mindset both as a teacher and in your students!
Adopt an inquiry approach that results in the most authentic and inspiring learning you've ever experienced!

| Summary/Abstract |
A book that refutes the common assumption that we behave in fundamentally rational ways. In making decisions, we constantly over and under spend, underestimate and vice-versa, procrastinate and make spontaneous decisions too. However this behaviour is neither random nor senseless, but predictably irrational which is the subject of this book.

It covers ways to look for answers and highlights the problems that arise when we do so. To encourage this critical thinking and to stimulate discussion, this Student’s Book also includes a wide range of material from other sources.
