Derivatives Pricing - Frederic D. Vrins

This is a masters-level overview of the mathematical concepts needed to fully grasp the art of derivatives pricing, and a must-have for anyone considering a career in quantitative finance in industry or academia. Starting from the foundations of probability, this textbook allows students with limited technical background to build a solid knowledge of the most important principles. It offers a unique compromise between intuition and mathematics, even when discussing abstract ideas such as change of measure. Mathematical concepts are introduced initially using toy examples, before moving on to examples of finance cases, both in discrete and continuous time. Throughout, numerical applications and simulations illuminate the analytical results. The end-of-chapter exercises test students'' understanding, with solved exercises at the end of each part to aid self-study. The author''s companion website hosts additional resources including slides, code and an interactive app.

Pricing Strategies - Robert M. Schindler

Written by a leading pricing researcher, this book provides a simple unified system for the setting and management of prices. The pricing procedures described are grounded in basic research and are generally applicable over products, situations, and times. The result is that students gain a deeper, more generally useful understanding of this essential aspect of business. The author demystifies the math necessary for making pricing decisions.  Using clear, direct language, he explains in detail how to apply expected value, multiple regression, price elasticity, and generalized breakeven analysis to essential pricing tasks. He uses a descriptive approach to explaining mathematical techniques so that formulas can be seen as simply more detailed specifications of intuitive ideas.

This revised edition includes updated examples and exercises as well as expanded coverage of topics such as freemium and in-app pricing, subscriptions, tipping, pay-what-you-want pricing, pricing algorithms, and dynamic pricing.

Purpose-Driven Pricing - Jagdish N. Sheth, Saloni Firasta-Vastani

Pricing is frequently used as a key strategic lever for management to increase profitability. However, price can also be used as a lever for societal good. This book demonstrates how effective use of price can have positive societal impacts, such as helping to reduce carbon emissions, accelerating the adoption of eco-friendly products, and improving peopleÂ’s health outcomes and quality of life.This book, written by two leading thinkers on pricing strategy and practice, makes the important link between the ideals of purpose in organizations and the crucial tools of how to implement change using one of the fundamental levers at the disposal of the organization. It introduces the concept of leveraging the power of pricing for both profit and societal good and then clearly explains how it can be done. Price can be used to manage demand, incentivize consumer behavior, and influence change. The impact can be effective and quick, and it is not far-fetched to say that pro-social pricing can be utilized to preserve the environment, educate citizens, promote arts, alleviate poverty, and improve health.

Frederic Chaubin. CCCP. Cosmic Communist Constructions Photographed. 40th Ed. - Frédéric Chaubin

Frédéric Chaubin’s Cosmic Communist Constructions Photographed features 90 Soviet buildings throughout the former USSR, each built between 1970 and 1990. It is a journey through time. With local exoticism, outlandish ideas, and a puzzle of styles, these weird and wonderful buildings are unearthly reminders of a fallen ideology.Architectural remnants of the USSR Elected the architectural book of the year by the International Artbook and Film Festival in Perpignan, France, Frédéric Chaubin’s Cosmic Communist Constructions Photographed explores 90 buildings in 14 former Soviet Republics. Each of these structures expresses what Chaubin considers the fourth age of Soviet architecture, an unknown burgeoning that took place from 1970 until 1990. Contrary to the 1920s and 1950s, no “school” or main trend emerges here. These buildings represent a chaotic impulse brought about by a decaying system. Taking advantage of the collapsing monolithic structure, architects went far beyond modernism, going back to the roots or freely innovating. Some of the daring ones completed projects that the Constructivists would have dreamt of (Druzhba Sanatorium, Yalta), others expressed their imagination in an expressionist way (Palace of Weddings, Tbilisi). A summer camp, inspired by sketches of a prototype lunar base, lays claim to Suprematist influence (Prometheus youth camp, ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Vladimír Putin - Pons Frédéric

Kdo je ve skutečnosti Vladimir Vladimirovič Putin? Autor této knihy odpovídá na položenou otázku z pozice nestranného badatele. Odložil všechna klišé a stereotypy, jež byly nakupeny kolem osoby ruského státníka a utvářejí jeho zjednodušený a jednostranný obraz. Frédéric Pons je realista, odpůrce historické manipulace, stoupenec objektivity a pravdivých faktů. Krok za krokem odhaluje osobnost Vladimira Putina od raného dětství do současnosti. Do detailů zachycuje jeho vývoj a myšlenkové zrání na životní cestě, odhaluje příčiny jeho rozhodování a konání ve všech etapách kariéry, v zásadních situacích, před které ho život i funkce postavily. Pons nevytváří žádnou legendu ani oslavný spisek; oprávněnost jeho kritiky vůči umělému, nekonstruktivnímu a nebezpečnému postoji Západu k Rusku logicky vyvěrá z jeho historické analýzy. Je věcným autorem, který se opírá o důkladné pramenné studium. Pracuje jemným a jasným stylem, je otevřený, nevyhýbá se ožehavým tématům. Pokud předkládá souvislosti a vyvozuje závěry, opět je nechává vyplynout z daných faktů. Prezidentův osobnostní portrét se Ponsovi podařilo zachytit na pozadí ruských dějin; události, jimiž si Rusko muselo projít, mu pomáhají osvětlit Putinovo myšlení a činy jako uvažování a konání vlastence, který hájí zájmy svého státu.

Temnota - Bram Stoker, Edward Frederic Benson - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Po devíti krocích jsme dospěli ke konci – přímo do srdce Temnoty. A je příznačné, že nás vítá ikonický autor z Irska jménem Bram Stoker. A s Drákulou po boku. Tedy – ne tak docela. Drakulův host je jedna z povídek, které vydala vdova po něm až po jeho smrti. A ač v názvu figuruje jméno knížete temnot, osobně se vlastně na scéně vůbec neobjeví. Ani Jonathan Harker, tedy skutečný host, nedostává prostor. Tato povídka představuje vlastně úvod do románu Drákula. Jde o zlehka přepracovanou verzi jedné z kapitol známého románu, která musela být obětována během přípravy Drákuly k tisku. Úplně poslední temnou povídkou je Komnata ve věži, kterou napsal Angličan Edward Frederic Benson. Podivná, tíživá atmosféra na vás dýchne hned na začátku a postupně se umocňuje – přes vracející se noční můry až k hrůznému závěru. Obě povídky čte nezapomenutelným způsobem Petr Šmíd.

Darkness - Bram Stoker, Edward Frederic Benson - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Nine steps have led us to the final stage – right into the heart of the Darkness. Aptly enough, the iconic author from Ireland is on the doorstep; Bram Stoker – and with his Dracula to boot. Well, wait a second – not exactly, to be honest. Dracula’s Guest is one of the stories published only after Stoker’s death, and even though Dracula is in the title, he will not make it into the story. Interestingly enough, Jonathan Harker, the actual guest – also does not appear. This short story is actually an original introduction to Dracula. It is a slightly altered version of a chapter of the novel that was discarded during preparations for print. The final story is The Room in the Tower, by Edward Frederic Benson. Strange, unsettling atmosphere is present right from the beginning, and it intensifies via recurrent nightmares – right up to the shocking climax of the final scene. As in all previous audiobooks, actors’ performances and music make for a perfect mix, combining to take you on the horror ride promised by the cover.

Případy soudce Ti Jak zpracovat podezřelého a kachnu na medu - Frédéric Lenormand

Kdo je tajemný zabiják s trojzubcem, který vraždí občany Pu-jangu? V tchangské Číně roku 669 soudce Ti spravuje vzkvétající město na Velkém císařském průplavu. Když krásná konkubína dovozce západních koberců zmizí ze svého příbytku, kde ve vší diskrétnosti přijímala milence, soudci Ti je hned jasné, že ji stihnul tragický osud. Na seznamu podezřelých figurují tři velmi různí muži, kteří se navzájem neznají. Soudce Ti doufá, že během cesty lodí odhalí v jednom z nich pachatele. To ale nepočítal s tím, že se nalodí i jeho Druhá paní, která se sama pouští do pátrání na vlastní pěst. Neochvějného vyšetřovatele, který zná lépe své zločince než vlastní domácnost, čeká plavba plná překvapení… Frédéric Lenormand (nar. 1964) je francouzský spisovatel historických a detektivních románů a literatury pro děti a mládež. Vystudoval ruský, anglický a italský jazyk a následně pokračoval ve studiu na Institutu politických studií v Paříži a na Sorbonně. Během devadesátých let získal za své historické romány a detektivky řadu různých ocenění, proto se začal literární dráze věnovat naplno. Vedle série detektivních případů z období Francouzské revoluce se rozhodl psát nové příběhy čínského soudce Ti a stal se tak pokračovatelem slavného Roberta van Gulika.

A Philosophy of Walking - Frederic Gros

By walking, you escape from the very idea of identity, the temptation to be someone, to have a name and a history ... The freedom in walking lies in not being anyone; for the walking body has no history, it is just an eddy in the stream of immemorial life.In A Philosophy of Walking, a bestseller in France, leading thinker Frédéric Gros charts the many different ways we get from A to B-the pilgrimage, the promenade, the protest march, the nature ramble-and reveals what they say about us. Gros draws attention to other thinkers who also saw walking as something central to their practice. On his travels he ponders Thoreau's eager seclusion in Walden Woods; the reason Rimbaud walked in a fury, while Nerval rambled to cure his melancholy. He shows us how Rousseau walked in order to think, while Nietzsche wandered the mountainside to write. In contrast, Kant marched through his hometown every day, exactly at the same hour, to escape the compulsion of thought. Brilliant and erudite, A Philosophy of Walking is an entertaining and insightful manifesto for putting one foot in front of the other.

Frederic Chaubin. Stone Age. 45th Ed.

Follow photographer Frédéric Chaubin as he embarks on a unique, century-spanning journey through Europe. Featuring images of more than 200 buildings in 21 countries, Stone Age. Ancient Castles of Europe presents the history and architecture of the most dramatic medieval castles of the continent in an unprecedented collection.Building on the success of his foray into Soviet design with CCCP, Chaubin once again documents the afterlife of highly rational structures that seem out of place in a modern-day world. Precursors of Brutalism, these castles value function over form and epitomize the raw materials and shapes that would go on to define so much of architectural history. Shot on film with a Linhof view camera, the collection is the outcome of five years of travel and investigation.Complete with a practical map and explanatory essay, its castles tell the story of 400 years, unfolding through the feudal Middle Ages into the 15th century. A photographic study of decay as much as endurance, Stone Age traces the history of some of these singular structures that continue to enchant their audiences today and that occupy a distinct, mystical place in our collective imagination.

The Security Principle - Frederic Gros

In The Security Principle, French philosopher Frédéric Gros takes a historical approach to the concept of "security", looking at its evolution from the Stoics to the social network. With lucidity and rigour, Gros's approach is fourfold, looking at security as a mental state, as developed by the Greeks; as an objective situation and absence of all danger, as prevailed in the Middle Ages; as guaranteed by the nation state and its trio of judiciary, police and military; and finally "biosecurity", control, regulation and protection in the flux of contemporary society. In this deeply thought-provoking account, Gros’s exploration of security shines a light both on its past meanings as well as its present uses, exposing the contemporary abuses of security and the pervasiveness of it in everyday life in the Global North.

Philosophy of Shame - Frederic Gros

Can shame become a source of political strength? Faced with injustice, growing inequality and systemic violence, we cry out in shame. We feel ashamed of obscene wealth amid wider deprivation. We feel ashamed of humanity for its ruthless and relentless exploitation of the earth.We feel ashamed of the racism and sexism that permeate society and our everyday lives. This difficult emotion is not just sadness or a withdrawal into oneself, nor is it a paralysing sense of inadequacy. As Frédéric Gros argues in A Philosophy of Shame, it arises when our perception of reality rejects passivity and resignation and instead embraces imagination.Shame thus becomes the expression of an anger that is a powerful, transformative force -one that assumes a radical character. In dialogue with authors such as Primo Levi, Annie Ernaux, Virginie Despentes and James Baldwin, Gros explores a concept that is still little understood in its anthropological, moral, psychological and political depths. Shame is a revolu­tionary sentiment because it lies at the foundation of any path of subjective recognition, transformation and struggle.

The World's Game - Frederic Raphael

In the twelfth century, Pope Clement III declared: ‘The Pope is resolved to be the lord and master of the world’s game.’ Yet history has proven to be much more complex.In this epic narrative, Frederic Raphael explores the most significant moments, ideas and figures that have shaped the world’s stage. He takes us on a journey through history: from the reigns of Julius Caesar and Alexander the Great, to Plato and Socrates and the origins of philosophy, the turning point of World War Two and the invention of the atom bomb, and, finally, the social and cultural divisions of modern day. It is often a story of conflict: the rise of anti-Semitism, the tensions between science and faith, progress and strife, comedy and ruthlessness.Thought-provoking and compelling, The World’s Game weaves a tapestry of the Western world and the power struggles that have shaped it.

Disobey! - Frederic Gros

The world is out of joint, so much so that disobeying should be an urgent act for everyone. In this provocative essay, Frédéric Gros explores the roots of political obedience, social conformity, economic subjection, respect for authorities, constitutional consensus. Examining the various styles of obedience provides tools to study, invent and induce new forms of civic disobedience and lyrical protest. Nothing can be taken for granted: neither supposed certainties nor social conventions, economic injustice or moral conviction. Thinking philosophically requires us to never accept truths and generalities that seem obvious—it restores a sense of political responsibility. At a time when the decisions of experts are presented as the result of icy statistics and anonymous calculations, disobeying becomes an assertion of humanity. To philosophise is to disobey. This book is a call for critical democracy and ethical resistance.
