Auctions Theory and Practice

"As a leader in auction-theory research and as a leading practitioner of auction design, Paul Klemperer is the best person to write the definitive book on auctions in theory and practice. This book ties together material on what economists should learn from auction theory, and on what auction theorists should learn from practical experience in auction design. "--Roger B. Myerson, University of Chicago"Paul Klemperer is one of the leaders in auction design worldwide. His emphasis in recent years on some of the more practical aspects of the theory--how to attract bidders, how to avoid collusion, how to think about government policy goals in designing public auctions--is particularly innovative. Klemperer's work will be very influential in the coming years."--Robert Wilson, Stanford University"Paul Klemperer not only has full command of the theoretical literature, he also has a very broad experience in putting theoretical insights into practical use."--Nils-Henrik von der Fehr, University of OsloKlemperer, Paul is the author of 'Auctions Theory and Practice', published 2004 under ISBN 9780691119250 and ISBN 0691119252.
