This textbook is for a one-semester course for undergraduate and graduate students, and has also been used for a course at the masters level in actuarial science. The focus is on stochastic
analysis, the main mathematical tool in financial mathematics, and financial terminology, logic, theory and context. Prerequisites are a basic knowledge of probability, real analysis, ordinary
differential equations, linear algebra, and some common sense. Elementary probability is covered briefly but sufficiently for the course in the text itself. Distributed in the US by World
