Why read it?
1 author picked Microeconomic Foundations I as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
The first volume examines consumer and producer theory, choice under uncertainty, and general equilibrium; while the second analyzes game theory, contract theory, and mechanism design.
These are, perhaps, the most rigorous, detailed, and advanced books of the typical topics covered in PhD Microeconomics in top institutions nowadays. While excellent for instructors, or advanced PhD students, the two volumes may be rather difficult to cover in the first-year PhD Microeconomics sequence, given their length and technicalities.
Nonetheless, both volumes will be quite helpful for instructors teaching graduate Microeconomics everywhere!
From Felix's list on advanced microeconomic theory.
