The asset pricing results are based on the three increasingly restrictive assumptions: absence of arbitrage, single-agent optimality, and equilibrium. These results are unified with two key concepts, state prices and martingales. Technicalities are given relatively little emphasis, so as to draw connections between these concepts and to make plain the similarities between discrete and continuous-time models. <p/> Readers will be particularly intrigued by this latest edition's most significant new feature: a chapter on corporate securities that offers alternative approaches to the valuation of corporate debt. Also, while much of the continuous-time portion of the theory is based on Brownian motion, this third edition introduces jumps--for example, those associated with Poisson arrivals--in order to accommodate surprise events such as bond defaults. Applications include term-structure models, derivative valuation, and hedging methods. Numerical methods covered include Monte Carlo simulation and finite-difference solutions for partial differential equations. Each chapter provides extensive problem exercises and notes to the literature. A system of appendixes reviews the necessary mathematical concepts. And references have been updated throughout. With this new edition, <i>Dynamic Asset Pricing Theory</i> remains at the head of the field.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Darrell Duffie, Winner of 2003 Financial Engineer of the Year<br><br>This is an important addition to the set of text/reference books on asset pricing theory.

Its treatment of contingent claim valuation, in particular, is unrivaled in its breadth and coherence.-- "Journal of Economic Literature"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Darrell Duffie</b> is the James Irvin Miller Professor of Finance at the Graduate School of Business, Stanford University.
