On the CD-ROM you'll find his Risk Simulator and Real Options Super Lattice Solver software as well as many useful spreadsheet models. <p>"Johnathan Mun's book is a sparkling jewel in my finance library. Mun demonstrates a deep understanding of the underlying mathematical theory in his ability to reduce complex concepts to lucid explanations and applications. For this reason, he's my favorite writer in this field."<br> -Janet Tavakoli, President, Tavakoli Structured Finance, Inc. and author of Collateralized Debt Obligations and Structured Finance </p> <p>"A must-read for product portfolio managers . . . it captures the risk exposure of strategic investments, and provides management with estimates of potential outcomes and options for risk mitigation."<br> -Rafael E. Gutierrez, Executive Director of Strategic Marketing and Planning, Seagate Technology, Inc.</p> <p>"Once again, Dr. Mun has created a 'must-have, must-read' book for anyone interested in the practical application of risk analysis.
