Abstract

We summarize the career of Reinhard Selten, who received the Nobel Prize in Economics in 1994. We underline his contributions to several domains of the theory of games, to the study of bounded rationality and to the methodology of experimental economics. We finally present the papers in this special issue in honor of his 85th birthday.
