Recensione

From the reviews of the second edition:

"This book provides a canonical framework that shows how to bridge the gap between the continuous-time pricing practice in financial engineering and the capital market data inevitably only available at discrete-time intervals. ... The reorganized and improved text further integrates the latest research contributions in three covered application fields: equities with closed funds, fixed-income products and electricity derivatives." (T. Postelnicu, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1086, 2006)
