Options have been traded for hundreds of years, but investment
decisions were based on gut feelings until the Nobel Prize-winning
discovery of the Black-Scholes options pricing model in 1973
ushered in the era of the "quants." Wall Street would never be the
same.
In "Pricing the Future," financial economist George G. Szpiro
tells the fascinating stories of the pioneers of mathematical
finance who conducted the search for the elusive options pricing
formula. From the broker's assistant who published the first
mathematical explanation of financial markets to Albert Einstein
and other scientists who looked for a way to explain the movement
of atoms and molecules, "Pricing the Future" retraces the
historical and intellectual developments that ultimately led to the
widespread use of mathematical models to drive investment
strategies on Wall Street.
