Book Description

December 8, 2008
Every exercise from the Math Primer book is solved in detail in the Solutions Manual. Over 50 new exercises are included, and complete solutions to these supplemental exercises are provided. Many of the new exercises are quite challenging and insightful from the perspective of further studies in financial engineering as well as for future job interviews. The addition of this Solutions Manual to the book ``A Primer for the Mathematics of Financial Engineering" offers the reader the opportunity of rigorous self--study of the mathematical topics presented in the Math Primer, and of achieving a deeper understanding of the financial applications therein.

5.0 out of 5 stars more books should have such a solutions manual, May 23, 2011
I am a math finance student who will soon start a summer internship on Wall Street. I want to leave feedback for the best and worst books that I used in my studies so far.

It is great to have solutions to all exercises in the book. It makes solving them worth the time, since you can always read the solution and learn from it, if you cannot do the problem yourself. I wish more books have solutions manuals (Wiersema's "Brownian Motion Calculus" has some solutions at the back of the book).

I was asked several questions on interviews that were exercises from the book. Some of the questions from the first chapter, for example, were often asked. It was a nice bonus to know them already!
