This book emphasizes the translational aspect, while first building an intuitive, technical understanding that allows market makers, portfolio managers, investment managers, risk managers, and other traders to work more effectively within—and beyond—the bounds of everyday practice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGain a deeper understanding of the assumptions underlying options theory.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTranslate theoretical ideas into practice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDevelop a more accurate risk management strategy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 444g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 160 x 236 x 20 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781119501619\n                            \n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Adam S.
