The rapidly growing field of computational social choice, at the intersection of computer science and economics, deals with the computational aspects of collective decision making. This handbook, written by thirty-six prominent members of the computational social choice community, covers the field comprehensively. Chapters devoted to each of the field's major themes offer detailed introductions. Topics include voting theory (such as the computational complexity of winner determination and manipulation in elections), fair allocation (such as algorithms for dividing divisible and indivisible goods), coalition formation (such as matching and hedonic games), and many more. Graduate students, researchers, and professionals in computer science, economics, mathematics, political science, and philosophy will benefit from this accessible and self-contained book.

Multiwinner Voting with Fairness Constraints (2017, background): “As the fairness constraints restrict the set of feasible committees in the same way for any set of voters, the argument for consistency remains the same (see [22, Theorem 7]).”
Social choice ethics in artificial intelligence (2017, background): “There is a more extensive study of ‘‘computational social choice’’ relating aspects of social choice theory and computer science (Brandt et al. 2015).”
Society-in-the-loop: programming the algorithmic social contract (2017, background): “The ﬁeld of computational social choice [4, 50] explores the aggregation of societal preferences and fair allocation of resources.”
Almost Envy-Freeness with General Valuations (2017, background): “Many different notions of fairness have been studied, with envy-freeness being one of the most prominent (see e.g., [Brams and Taylor, 1996, Brandt et al., 2016, Moulin, 2003] for further background).”
