A good introductory book

The first part of this book is a good introduction to linear programming and the simplex method. Easy reading, tries to give insight, and with lots of examples. My personal favorite when it comes to refreshing my intuition on duality and how simplex works. Regarding the game theory material, it seems to be a little crowded. Don't expect any in-depth coverage there, but as a brief overview it might be appropriate.
