I have gone through this book to try to get a better understanding of derivative pricing. Math is kept easy but often the author leaves out steps in his reasoning. In fact, I have find Hull's book more explanatory and easy to follow on topics like stochastic processes and the creation of Ito's lemma than Wilmott's. This is disappointing as Hull gets pretty detailed in his explanations. I am not an Einstein so I will not and do take out pencil and paper to derive results to make sure I understand. I have not been successful in several instances with this book. However i would still recommend this book to be read as reference for certain topics that are better explained in this book relative to the other similar ones
