It emphasizes practical applications over theoretical generalities, making it accessible for learners and a useful reference for researchers. Key concepts such as screening, signaling, and moral hazard are explored, alongside multilateral contracting and auction theory. Each chapter includes a literature guide, while exercises are provided at the end for further practice.
