Each lecture is self-contained, and no preliminary knowledge of the field is required.
Prof Winter said: “The Covid-19 pandemic has presented me with a unique opportunity to record a series of lectures examining behavioural economics and game theory.
"Both of these spheres impact on our daily lives in more ways than you might imagine, from government policy to public behaviour, and this is a chance to find out more.”
