Book Description
The long-awaited sequel to the "Concepts and Practice of Mathematical Finance" has now arrived. Taking up where the first volume left off, a range of topics is covered in depth. Extensive sections include portfolio credit derivatives, quasi-Monte Carlo, the calibration and implementation of the LIBOR market model, the acceleration of binomial trees, the Fourier transform in option pricing and much more. Throughout Mark Joshi brings his unique blend of theory, lucidity, practicality and experience to bear on issues relevant to the working quantitative analyst. "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. Chapter 1. Optionality, convexity and volatility 1 Chapter 2. Where does the money go? 9 Chapter 3. The Bachelier model 23 Chapter 4. Deriving the Delta 29 Chapter 5. Volatility derivatives and model-free dynamic replication 33 Chapter 6. Credit derivatives 41 Chapter 7. The Monte Carlo pricing of portfolio credit derivatives 53 Chapter 8. Quasi-analytic methods for pricing portfolio credit derivatives 71 Chapter 9. Implied correlation for portfolio credit derivatives 81 Chapter 10. Alternate models for portfolio credit derivatives 93 Chapter 11. The non-commutativity of discretization 113 Chapter 12. What is a factor? 129 Chapter 13. Early exercise and Monte Carlo Simulation 151 Chapter 14. The Brownian bridge 175 Chapter 15. Quasi Monte Carlo Simulation 185 Chapter 16. Pricing continuous barrier options using a jump-diffusion model 207 Chapter 17. The Fourier-Laplace transform and option pricing 219 Chapter 18. The cos method 253 Chapter 19. What are market models? 265 Chapter 20. Discounting in market models 281 Chapter 21. Drifts again 293 Chapter 22. Adjoint and automatic Greeks 307 Chapter 23.

The fundamental theorem of asset pricing. 449 Appendix A. The discrete Fourier transform 457 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

Book Description
Indian literature is produced in a wealth of languages but there is an asymmetry in the exposure the writing gets, which owes partly to the politics of translation into English. This book represents the first comprehensive political scrutiny of the concerns and attitudes of Indian language literature after 1947 to cover such a wide range, including voices from the cultural margins of the nation like Kashmiri and Manipuri, that of women alongside those of minority and marginalised communities. In examining the politics of the writing especially in relation to concerns like nationhood, caste, tradition and modernity, postcoloniality, gender issues and religious conflict, the book goes beyond the declared ideology of each writer to get at covert significations pointing to widely shared but often unacknowledged biases. The book is deeply analytical but lucid and jargon-free and, to those unfamiliar with the writers, it introduces a new keenness into Indian literary criticism to make its objects exciting.

Book Description
The cultural universe of urban, English-speaking middle class in India shows signs of growing inclusiveness as far as English is concerned. This phenomenon manifests itself in increasing forms of bilingualism (combination of English and one Indian language) in everyday forms of speech - advertisement jingles, bilingual movies, signboards, and of course conversations. It is also evident in the startling prominence of Indian Writing in English and somewhat less visibly, but steadily rising, activity of English translation from Indian languages. Since the eighties this has led to a frenetic activity around English translation in India's academic and literary circles. Kothari makes this very current phenomenon her chief concern in Translating India. The study covers aspects such as the production, reception and marketability of English translation. Through an unusually multi-disciplinary approach, this study situates English translation in India amidst local and global debates on translation, representation and authenticity. The case of Gujarati - a case study of a relatively marginalized language - is a unique addition that demonstrates the micro-issues involved in translation and the politics of language. Rita Kothari teaches English at St. Xavier's College, Ahmedabad (Gujarat), where she runs a translation research centre on behalf of Katha. She has published widely on literary sociology, postcolonialism and translation issues. Kothari is one of the leading translators from Gujarat. Her first book (a collaboration with Suguna Ramanathan) was on English translation of Gujarati poetry (Modern Gujarati Poetry: A Selection, Sahitya Akademi, New Delhi, 1998). Her English translation of the path-breaking Gujarati Dalit novel Angaliyat is in press (The Stepchild, Oxford University Press). She is currently working on an English translation of Gujarati short stories by women of Gujarat, a study of the nineteenth-century narratives of Gujarat, and is also engaged in a project on the Sindhi identity in India.
