This is the economics-focused website of Dimitrios Diamantaras, who is the author of all material in it except for the quoted passages. For my professional profile, please visit http://astro.temple.edu/~dimitris and for my less formal and more wide-ranging blog, please visit http://dimitrios-diamantaras.com. You can also find me at http://friendfeed.com/ddiam, on Twitter as @ddiamantaras, and on Google Buzz as Dimitrios Diamantaras. I have written a book on mechanism design with four graduate students of mine at Temple University which was published in March 2009 by Palgrave Macmillan. It is entitled A Toolbox for Economic Design. You can find it on Amazon.com or on Palgrave’s website.
This website is a work in progress. It will never be complete or anywhere near perfect. I have, after an inordinate delay, finally begun to understand that and will no longer leave vast swaths of it empty pages in it. Instead, I will be adding little bits regularly, even if it makes various pages appear incredibly half-done. I suppose I am a recovering print-publication addict.
