Format:Hardcover
This books is a collection of short essays on various quant finance topics AND a collection of various interviews with some of the smartest modelers around. While I disagree with some of the statements in the book, I especially enjoyed the interviews. It really helps that Haug, the author, is a pro himself and can ask smart questions.

Highly recommended.

Having the thoughts of the pioneers of quantitative finance in one book is a must for any serious quant. Excellent reading in particular for any exotic equity derivatives quant or trader.

Besides treatise on different modelling subjects, this books features the author's interviews with various top quants. I find some of the modelling subjects interesting, some a little bit far-fetched, but the discussions with the quants about their thoughts are most interesting.
