But what about other kinds of goods, like a spot in the Yale freshman class or a position at Google? 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. 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. n n In Who Gets What--and Why, Nobel laureate Alvin E. Roth reveals the matching markets hidden around us and shows us how to recognize a good match and make smarter, more confident decisions. n nMr. Roth's work has been to discover the most efficient and equitable methods of matching, and implement them in the world.
