From the reviews: "This is a fine addition to a growing list of books on the theory of incentives. ... the material is very well presented. I particularly like the selection of examples and the way in which they are used. ... Social Choice Mechanisms will be a valuable research tool. ... it is quite easy to move around in the book. ... I found a lot of gems that I had not come across before, even though I was fairly familiar with the terrain." (Donald E. Campbell, Social Choice and Welfare, Vol. 21 (3), 2003)
