The third edition of this highly regarded text has been thoroughly updated and expanded considerably with five new chapters for the risk manager, including how to plan and assess the quality of risk analysis, as well as new chapters for this risk analysis, as well as new chapters for the risk analysis modeller on summation of random variables, causality, optimization, insurance and finance modelling, forecasting, model validation and common errors, capital investment and microbial risk assessment. This new edition provides a greater focus on business and includes applications in a wide range of different settings.
Key Features:
* Breaks down techniques into types of modelling issues (like distribution fitting, correlation and time series forecasting) and then applies them with easy-to-follow examples.
* Explains powerful and proven Monte Carlo simulation and numerical techniques for dealing with uncertainty.
* Includes recent innovations in modelling like fast Fourier transforms and copulas.
* Over 150 examples models and over 400 illustrations.
* Written in an informal manner with a practical rather than academic focus.
* Discusses the planning, uses and abuses of risk analysis.
* Includes a compendium of almost eighty distribution types and their uses.
