Quarterly Newsletter
This is the inaugural newsletter of the Game Theory Society. We intend that it will become a regular affair. We are open to suggestions about what items to include. For now, we include a link to the Society web page that records Game Theory conferences happening around the world and two recent posts. We urge you to use the conference announcement form on the web site to publicize Game Theory conferences you may be hosting.

The second is Divine Games by Steven J. Brams. It is a game theoretic analysis of the interaction between a mortal and an omnipotent being.

Suggestions for items to be included in future issues of the newsletter are welcome.
