The authors provide intuitive explanations alongside mathematical theory, equipping readers to understand the material in sufficient depth to apply it in real world situations and to adapt their results in a changing insurance environment. Topics include modern actuarial paradigms, such as multiple state models, cash flow projection methods and option theory, all of which are required for managing the increasingly complex range of contemporary long-term insurance products.  \nNumerous exam-style questions allow readers to prepare for traditional professional actuarial exams, and extensive use of Excel ensures that readers are ready for modern, Excel-based exams and for the actuarial work environment. The Solutions Manual (ISBN 9781108747615), available for separate purchase, provides detailed solutions to the text’s exercises.  \ndavid c. m. dickson holds a PhD in Actuarial Science from Heriot-Watt University and is a Fellow of the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries and the Institute of Actuaries of Australia.
