Two sides in the book

I have read a few parts of the book however I see a pattern. Several chapters are descriptive and narrative with useful thoughts and idea. Simple and easy to read and follow. The majority of the chapters heavy dense math material. To benefit from it you need a solid math background and have had exposure to auctions. At least a good understanding of the basics auctions as those found in chapters of Game Theory textbooks. If this is your first book in Auction, it is not definetely a great option. Otherwise a great resource.

Great book! Must Read if you are in the auction space.

This is a great book about auction theory. I read it among many others as I was doing researches for our upcoming online auction site. It is clearly a bible for the auction professional as well as a very practical tool to understand existing and diverse mechanisms.
