This is the first systematic and extensive book on exotic options. The book covers essentially all popular exotic options currently trading in the Over-the-Counter (OTC) market, from digitals, quantos, spread options, lookback options, Asian options, vanilla barrier options, to various types of exotic barrier options and other options. Each type of exotic options is largely written in a separate chapter, beginning with the basic concepts of the products and then moving on to how to price them in closed-form solutions. Many pricing formulae and analyses which have not previously appeared in the literature are included and illustrated with detailed examples. It will be of great interest to traders, marketers, analysts, risk managers, professors, graduate students, and anyone who is interested in what is going on in the rapidly changing financial market.

"He has put together a comprehensive book on exotic option pricing, showing this to be possible without the measure theory twaddle. It takes the reader through the entire spectrum of products in an organized way and provides most necessary formulas as well as the intuition of their derivation ... There is no other place where one can find all the pricing tools gathered together, which allows one to price an option without sneezing from the dust of stacks of journal articles ... The author does a good job when he limits his role to providing a complete pricing encyclopedia ... This is the most complete conventional option pricing book currently available."
