"Who's #1? is an excellent survey of the fundamental ideas behind mathematical rating systems. Once a realm of sports enthusiasts, ranking things is becoming a vital tool in many information-age applications.

Readers of this book will be inspired to further explore this exciting field."--Kenneth Massey, Massey Ratings
