The first edition of Derivatives expends considerable effort in explaining what lies behind the formal mathematics of pricing and hedging derivative securities. Questions ranging from 'how are forward prices determined?' to 'why does the Black-Scholes formula have the form it does?' are answered throughout the text. The authors of this first edition use verbal and pictorial expositions, and sometimes simple mathematical models, to explain the underlying principles before proceeding to a formal analysis. Extensive uses of numerical examples for illustrative purposes are used throughout to supplement the intuitive and formal presentations.
The main body of this book is divided into six parts. Parts 1-3 cover, respectively, futures and forwards; options; and swaps. Part 4 examines term-structure modeling and the pricing of interest-rate derivatives, while Part 5 is concerned with credit derivatives and the modeling of credit risk. Part 6 discusses computational issues.

我尤其欣赏这本书在解释衍生品定价模型时的严谨与易懂。我知道很多衍生品交易的背后都依赖着复杂的数学模型,而这往往是初学者望而却步的地方。然而,《DERIVATIVES SUNDARAM, DAS (99/5)》在介绍布莱克-斯科尔斯模型等经典定价方法时,并没有回避数学公式,但同时又辅以大量的解释和直观的图示。作者们巧妙地将复杂的数学推导分解成一个个易于理解的步骤,并且强调了模型的假设和局限性。这让我明白,模型固然重要,但更重要的是理解其背后的逻辑和实际应用中的注意事项。这本书让我觉得,即使我没有深厚的数学背景,也能逐步掌握衍生品定价的核心思想。
评分这本书最让我印象深刻的是它对衍生品市场的演变和发展历史的梳理。作者们并没有将重点放在纯粹的理论推导上,而是花了不少篇幅去讲述衍生品是如何从最初的简单交易工具,一步步演变成如今复杂多样的金融产品。这种历史的视角非常有价值,它帮助我理解了为何会产生某些特定的衍生品,以及市场在不断适应和应对风险的过程中,是如何推动产品创新的。从最初的远期合约,到后来的期货,再到更加复杂的期权和掉期,这本书用一种叙事的方式,将这些金融工具的发展脉络清晰地呈现出来,让我不再感到它们是孤立的存在,而是具有内在联系和演化逻辑的。
评分作为一名金融领域的初学者,最近我接触到了一本关于衍生品的著作,名为《DERIVATIVES SUNDARAM, DAS (99/5)》。坦白说,我在阅读之前对衍生品的世界充满了神秘感和一丝畏惧。我一直认为这是一个极其专业且复杂的领域,充斥着各种我闻所未闻的术语和精密的数学模型。然而,这本书以一种出人意料的清晰和结构化的方式,为我打开了这扇门。首先,它并非直接抛出艰深的理论,而是从基础概念入手,比如什么是金融衍生品,它们为什么会存在,以及在什么场景下会被使用。作者们善于用生活化的例子来类比,比如保险、期货合约的早期形态等,这让我在理解抽象概念时感到轻松许多。
评分从实践应用的角度来看,这本书提供了非常丰富的案例分析。作者们并没有仅仅停留在理论层面,而是通过大量的真实市场案例,展示了不同类型的衍生品如何在风险管理、套期保值、投机等领域发挥作用。我学习到了如何利用期货和期权来对冲商品价格波动风险,如何在利率掉期中管理企业融资成本,以及一些利用期权组合进行复杂交易的策略。这些案例分析生动地说明了衍生品工具的实际价值,让我对它们在现代金融体系中的重要性有了更深刻的认识,也为我未来在实际工作中应用这些知识打下了基础。
评分总而言之,这本书《DERIVATIVES SUNDARAM, DAS (99/5)》为我提供了一个全面而深入的衍生品知识框架。它不仅仅是一本教科书,更像是一本启蒙读物,引导我一步步走进衍生品的世界。作者们的叙述风格清晰流畅,逻辑严谨,并且能够将复杂的概念用易于理解的方式呈现出来。虽然书中涉及的内容颇为丰富,但整体阅读体验却并不枯燥,反而充满了探索的乐趣。我强烈推荐这本书给任何想要了解衍生品市场,或者希望在金融领域有所建树的读者,它绝对是一份宝贵的财富。
