Numerical Solution of Stochastic Differential Equations

"... the authors draw upon their own research and experiences in obviously many disciplines... considerable time has obviously been spent writing this in the simplest language possible. This was not an easy task... Their exposition stresses clarity, not formality - a very welcome approach." ZAMP
