New book - Credit Risk Frontiers

Credit Risk Frontiers is now available on Amazon.  The full title is Credit Risk Frontiers: Subprime Crisis, Pricing and Hedging, CVA, MBS, Ratings, and Liquidity, edited by Tomasz Bielecki, Damiano Brigo, and Frederic Patras.  I wrote two chapters for the book:

   Counterparty Valuation Adjustments
 

and

   Analysis of Mortgage-Backed Securities: Before and After the Credit Crisis

If you are interested, please pick up a copy and write a nice review!  Thanks.
