A wonderful display of the use of mathematical probability to derive a large set of results from a small set of assumptions. In summary, this is a well-written text that treats the key classical models of finance through an applied probability approach. It should serve as an excellent introduction for anyone studying the mathematics of the classical theory of finance.
Exploring Probability in School provides a new perspective into research on the teaching and learning of probability. It creates this perspective by recognizing and analysing the special challenges faced by teachers and learners in contemporary classrooms where probability has recently become a mainstream part of the curriculum from early childhood through high school. The authors of the book discuss the nature of probability, look at the meaning of probabilistic literacy, and examine student access to powerful ideas in probability during the elementary, middle, and high school years.
This is intended to be a second course in stochastic processes. It is assumed that you have had a first course on stochastic processes, using elementary probability theory. You will be re-studying stochastic processes within the framework of measure-theoretic probability.
