Books are written for use,and the best compliment that the community in the field could have paid to the first edition of 1998 was to buy out the printrun,and that of the corrected printing,as
happened. Meanwhile,the fast-developing field of mathematical finance had moved on,as had our thinking,and it seemed better to recognize this and undertake a thorough-going re-write for the
second edition than to tinker with the existing text.
