Alvin Roth, PhD, is the McCaw Professor of Economics at Stanford University, and is one of the world’s leading experts in the fields of market design and game theory. He was the co-recipient of the 2012 Nobel Prize in Economics.
A Nobel laureate reveals the often surprising rules that govern a vast array of activities — both mundane and life-changing — in which money may play little or no role.
If you’ve ever sought a job or hired someone, applied to college or guided your child into a good kindergarten, asked someone out on a date or been asked out, you’ve participated in a kind of market. Most of the study of economics deals with commodity markets, where the price of a good connects sellers and buyers. But what about other kinds of “goods,” like a spot in the Yale freshman class or a position at Google? This is the territory of matching markets, where “sellers” and “buyers” must choose each other, and price isn’t the only factor determining who gets what.
Alvin E. Roth is one of the world’s leading experts on matching markets. He has even designed several of them, including the exchange that places medical students in residencies and the system that increases the number of kidney transplants by better matching donors to patients. In Who Gets What — And Why, Roth reveals the matching markets hidden around us and shows how to recognize a good match and make smarter, more confident decisions.

邁剋爾·諾頓(Michael Norton)–哈佛商學院工商管理教授 我打算讀的兩本書均由行為科學領域裏的兩位傑齣學者所著,闡述的是對個體、群體和市場的見解。一本是丹·艾瑞裏(Dan Ariely)的《你身邊的非理性現象:丟失的襪子,搭訕說辭及其他存在的謎團》(Irrationally Yours: On Mis...
評分橫杠前的四個字絕對是蹭近兩年來“共享經濟”的熱點以增加銷量,這是本說怎麼設計有效市場配對的書,當然這個配對過程也是uber, airbnb等共享經濟公司開展業務的重要依據。 第一部分論述無所不在的市場本身,第二部分論述瞭過早,過快,阻塞,不安全這四種問題導緻市場資源配置...
評分高中沒畢業就輟學的埃爾文·羅斯因在市場設計領域的突齣貢獻和同是博弈論大牛的羅伊德·沙普利分享瞭2012年的諾貝爾經濟學奬,同年獲得諾貝爾文學奬的是中國作傢莫言。頗為有趣的是,羅斯和沙普利一個是少年得誌,一個則是大器晚成。 成功的市場設計一是要讓市場變得稠密起來,...

牛逼閃閃的書果然在豆瓣都沒有五星……智商啊 XD
評分非常有趣。
評分marketplace design, matching, game theory
評分之前學凸優化的時候,不明白為什麼收斂性這麼重要,現在慢慢意識到瞭,通過迭代慢慢收斂的算法,纔是有『指望』的算法(除非目的本身就是不確定),書中提到的延遲接受算法(deferred acceptance algorithm)就是很好的例子,最終達到資源的最佳平衡
評分key word: market design: thickness, avoid congestion, safety and reliability. deferred acceptance algorithm
