'William Thomson, one of the greatest academic advisors in economics worldwide, and a leading scholar in the field of resource allocation, has been carefully developing this project for more than two decades. I believe the book will be considered a classic right after being published.' Juan D. Moreno-Ternero, Universidad Pablo de Olavide, Spain 'The design of rationing rules has inspired for nearly forty years a fascinating intellectual edifice of axiomatic postulates and mathematical results, reviewed here by the premiere author of that literature. Readers will recognize, or discover, William Thomson's superb pedagogical talent in a text that is comprehensive, self-contained, and luminously clear.' Herve Moulin, Donald J.
