Examines the many definitions of "fair division" that have been proposed throughout the years and what is known about cake-cutting algorithms as they apply to these definitions. The first seven chapters provide a leisurely survey of the problem, written with the novice in mind, without mathematical formalism. The final four chapters, for the non-casual reader, contain the technical details of proofs for the previous chapters. Exercises and projects are included in most of the chapters and the solutions for all of the exercises are included. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
