"More Mathematical Finance" is Mark Joshi's fourth book. His previous books including "C++ Design Patterns and Derivatives Pricing" and "Quant Job Interview Questions and Answers" have proven to be indispensable for individuals seeking to become quantitative analysts. His new book continues this trend with a clear exposition of a range of models and techniques in the field of derivatives pricing. Each chapter is accompanied by a set of exercises. These are of a variety of types including simple proofs, complicated derivations and computer projects.

Praise for the Concepts and Practice of Mathematical Finance:
"overshadows many other books available on the same subject" -- ZentralBlatt Math
"Mark Joshi succeeds admirably - an excellent starting point for a numerate person in the field of mathematical finance." -- Risk Magazine
"Very few books provide a balance between financial theory and practice. This book is one of the few books that strikes that balance." -- SIAM Review
