"I know of no book that offers such a comprehensive treatment of theory and experiments in common value auctions. The papers it brings together represent very significant contributions to both auction theory and auction behavior and are of the highest quality.

The ex post perspectives about how to improve experimental designs and procedures for dealing with bankruptcies were particularly interesting. "--Charles A. Holt, University of Virginia
