`Debraj Ray has systematically re-examined the theory of coalition formation. In this book, he develops a broad and fundamental theory to help us better understand the problems of forming efficient social structures.' Roger Myerson, the Glen A. Lloyd Distinguished Service Professor of Economics, University of Chicago `The issues addressed lie at the heart of game theory, yet have received too little attention. One hopes that young scholars will use this superb monograph as a launching pad to explore the many important, fascinating and unresolved questions to which Ray directs our attention.' Dilip Abreu, Edward E. Matthews, Class of 1953, Professor of Finance and Professor of Economics
