拍卖资产的最佳方式是什么?一群人应该如何组织自己以确保公共物品的最佳供应?如何组织交流?在《机制设计理论导论》中，提尔曼·伯格斯通过对机制设计理论的探索来解决这些问题。机制设计是逆向博弈理论。而博弈论以博弈规则为前提，对策略玩家的行为进行预测，而机制设计理论则更进一步，选择博弈的最优规则。 一个相对较新的经济理论，机制设计研理论本身也是理论不断发展的的结果。《机制设计理论》一书提供了严格的但可以解释经典结果的机制设计理论，如拍卖中预期收益最大化的Myerson定理、关于不对称信息的事后有效双边贸易的Myerson-Satterthwaite不可能性定理,以及关于不存在占有策略的投票机制的Satterthwaite定理。伯格斯也提供了一种新颖和统一的视角来审视该领域当前研究的前沿，这将吸引经济学的高年级学生。

What is the best way to auction an asset? How should a group of people organize themselves to ensure the best provision of public goods? How should exchanges be organized? In An Introduction to the Theory of Mechanism Design, Tilman Börgers addresses these questions and more through an exploration of the economic theory of mechanism design. Mechanism design is reverse game theo...(展开全部)
