Yes, and yes. John von Neumann was a great mathematician. Moreover, his temperament was sociable and he was famous for getting along with people. Besides inventing game theory, the merge sort algorithm for computers and the like, he made a mathematical formulation for quantum mechanics.
Is there a source on the net with regards to his game theory? Or a published source?
Well, there's this:
<http://www.gametheory.net/Dictionary/People/JohnvonNeumann.html>
The entire site is devoted to game theory and looks fairly surfable.
As for published sources, a search of Amazon for "John von Neumann" yields more than a few results as well.
