Kwok second edition

July 20th, 2008, 7:03 am

got a copy of Y.K. Kwok "Mathematical Models of financial Derivatives" 2nd ed. Over the years I've found his book (first ed '98) quite useful at times, as it contains unusually large collection of formulae with an acceptable levels of typos. The 2nd edition is significanly larger, but for some reason he chose to exclude some chapters.

I found typos in compund options and in options on several assets - those formulae have been removed from the second edition.Those are almost two different books, so keeping them both makes sense.
