The text is essentially self-contained. No previous knowledge of mathematical logic or relational algebra is assumed. Whatever technical prerequisites are needed, are developed in the text itself. Although the text is at an introductory level, there has been no compromise on rigor. Unlike most introductory books, the relevant proofs are not omitted; rather, they have been explained in detail. The text has a large number of examples so that the concepts and results become clear to the reader. There is a large number of exercises with full solutions provided at the end of the text, so that the reader can check her/his understanding of the material. 001450915 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed November 10, 2022). 001450915 650_0 $$aSocial choice. 001450915 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001450915 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9811696608$$z9789811696602$$w(OCoLC)1289478726 001450915 830_0 $$aSpringer texts in business and economics. 001450915 852__ $$bebk 001450915 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-16-9661-9$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001450915 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1450915$$pGLOBAL_SET 001450915 980__ $$aBIB 001450915 980__ $$aEBOOK 001450915 982__ $$aEbook 001450915 983__ $$aOnline 001450915 994__ $$a92$$bISE
