5.0 out of 5 stars very nice book indeed
I honestly do not agree with the previous reviewer. I had the chance to take a glimpse at a copy of it in London (and I immediately bought it) for mainly two reasons: I liked the Monte Carlo treatment (i.e. the rigorous definition of realization of a r.v. and then the variance reduction techniques) that is in general only sketched in other stochastic finance textbooks...

2.0 out of 5 stars For beginners only
If you know calculus, there are better books around to learn stochastic processes applied to finance. Its just very basic introductory book.

5.0 out of 5 stars very nice book indeed, December 24, 2008
This review is from: Stochastic Processes with Applications to Finance (Hardcover)
I honestly do not agree with the previous reviewer. I had the chance to take a glimpse at a copy of it in London (and I immediately bought it) for mainly two reasons: I liked the Monte Carlo treatment (i.e. the rigorous definition of realization of a r.v. and then the variance reduction techniques) that is in general only sketched in other stochastic finance textbooks (e.g. Lamberton and Lapeyre's ,Dana and Jeanblanc's or totally absent in others) and then a very nice detail on SDEs on page 206-207, useful for Heston's model, that uses Yamada and Watanabe's 1-dimensional existence result. Then Ito, Girsanov, Feynman-Kac, models with jumps.... it's all there! For beginners??? Nah nah nah... I do not think so! Five stars, all deserved.
