Foundations of the Pricing of Financial Derivatives: Theory and Analysis

＂This book in manuscript form has been class-tested three times. This course was a doctoral seminar that was open to finance masters and doctoral students and also STEM students across the university. All of these students contributed a great deal to catching errors, forcing us to re-think how we said something, and in some cases contributing end-of-chapter problems. This book would be nowhere near ready for prime time were it not for them.＂--
