Recent years have seen a number of introductory texts which focus on the applications of modern stochastic calculus to the theory of finance, and on the pricing models for derivative securities in particular. Some of these books develop the mathematics very quickly, making substantial demands on the

β¦ Synopsis
This book provides a speedy but readable and comprehensive approach to financial math. For a slower and more careful approach to the mathematics, especially with regard to local martingales and the construction of the stochastic integral, I recommend Steele. An important warning about the 2nd edition of Elliott and Kopp is that Chapter 7, the longest and most important chapter in the book, which covers continuous time European options and the Greeks, is rife with typos: incorrect subscripts, superscripts and signs, mixed up or missing variables in expressions, backwards inequalities, etc. This chapter was clearly not edited carefully, and can be a little frustrating to read.
