{"product_id":"a-course-in-financial-calculus-alison-etheridge-9780521890779","title":"A Course in Financial Calculus","description":"This text is designed for first courses in financial calculus aimed at students with a good background in mathematics. Key concepts such as martingales and change of measure are introduced in the discrete time framework, allowing an accessible account of Brownian motion and stochastic calculus. The Black-Scholes pricing formula is first derived in the simplest financial context. Subsequent chapters are devoted to increasing the financial sophistication of the models and instruments. The final chapter introduces more advanced topics including stock price models with jumps, and stochastic volatility. A large number of exercises and examples illustrate how the methods and concepts can be applied to realistic financial questions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alison Etheridge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521890772\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521890779\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/15\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 206\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.98lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.78h x 6.90w x 0.43d","brand":"Alison Etheridge","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44717149487359,"sku":"9780521890779","price":56.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d026f811-2aa2-468a-9180-a15fc8b8da78.jpg?v=1705687166","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-course-in-financial-calculus-alison-etheridge-9780521890779","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
