Among connoisseurs, Robert A Jarrow is known as a pro among pros, a mathematical finance maven, who understands real-world financial markets and translates that specified knowledge into mathematical models of that world. Relevant, rigorous, and right on the mark in problem-selection, are the constants that mark the unmistakable stamp of a Jarrow paper.
The present book patiently develops the complex mathematical models at the foundation of option pricing, bond pricing, and credit pricing. The chapters reproduce articles that have become classics in the field. The chapters of this volume are rigorous and at times demanding of what the reader must do to gain the full benefits of what they offer. But whether a serious academic researcher, a seasoned quantitative professional, or a mathematically inclined novice student, the reader is in for a treat well-worth the effort: Bon appetit! --Robert C Merton, Nobel Laureate, Economics 1997

Robert A Jarrow has been a major force in mathematical finance for almost three decades. Having had the honor of spending the second of these three decades with him at Cornell, I stand slack-jawed in awe at the incredible range and depth of the articles in this collection. --Peter Carr, PhD, Quantitative Financial Research, Bloomberg LP & Director of the Masters program in Mathematical Finance Courant Institute, NYU
Robert Jarrow s selected works, with colleagues, are a tour de force of possible generalizations of the Black Scholes Merton options pricing analysis. Under some assumptions, the Black Scholes formula still holds; under others it is an approximation; under others it is not even close. Nothing about the Black Scholes Merton analysis seems to be left unexplored. And then Jarrow tells us that, although I have been studying the Black Scholes Merton model for almost 30 years, I still have not found answers to all of my questions about its structure. He then lists fascinating questions which he is currently exploring, but which are not ready for presentation in the current volume. --Harry M Markowitz, Nobel Laureate, Economics 1990
This major selection of papers of Robert Jarrow, though only a fraction of his amazing output over nearly three decades, exemplifies his leadership in the world of financial mathematics and financial engineering, even before these fields were named. Always ahead of others with new methods, always relevant to real issues in financial markets, Jarrow covers all of the bases. Anyone who wants to see the path of development of these fields can find it in this great book. --Darrell Duffie, Stanford University
Review
Robert Jarrow's selected works, with colleagues, are a `tour de force' of possible generalizations of the Black-Scholes-Merton options pricing analysis. Under some assumptions, the Black-Scholes formula still holds; under others it is an approximation; under others it is not even close. Nothing about the Black-Scholes-Merton analysis seems to be left unexplored. And then Jarrow tells us that, `although I have been studying the Black-Scholes-Merton model for almost 30 years, I still have not found answers to all of my questions about its structure.' He then lists fascinating questions which he is currently exploring, but which are not ready for presentation in the current volume.
