In Who Gets What, Nobel Prize winning economist Alvin Roth uncovers the global rules of how markets allocate, how matchmaking shapes lives, where markets exist that we may not even realize and how everything about our biggest experiences from getting accepted at university or living where we want, can be better understood and negotiated when one understands the design of those matching markets.
