Mathematical Logic through Python
Using a unique pedagogical approach, this text introduces mathematical logic by guiding students in implementing the underlying logical concepts and mathematical proofs via Python programming. This approach, tailored to the unique intuitions and strengths of the ever-growing population of programming-savvy students, brings mathematical logic into the comfort zone of these students and provides clarity that can only be achieved by a deep hands-on understanding and the satisfaction of having created working code. While the approach is unique, the text follows the same set of topics typically covered in a one-semester undergraduate course, including propositional logic and first-order predicate logic, culminating in a proof of Gödel's completeness theorem. A sneak peek to Gödel's incompleteness theorem is also provided. The textbook is accompanied by an extensive collection of programming tasks, code skeletons, and unit tests. Familiarity with proofs and basic proficiency in Python is assumed.

Python Experiments in Physics and Astronomy
Python Experiments in Physics and Astronomy acts as a resource for science and engineering students or faculty who would like to see how a diverse selection of topics can be analyzed and simulated using Python programs. The book also provides Python solutions that can be learned from and modified as needed. The book is mainly aimed at undergraduates, but since many science students and faculty have limited exposure to scientific programming, having a collection of examples that address curve-fitting, Fast Fourier Transforms, image photometry and image alignment, and many others could be very helpful not just for learning from, but also to support classroom projects and demonstrations.Key Features:Features tutorials using Python for non-computer science students and faculty involved with scientific programmingContains complete scientific programming examples for teaching and academic projectsPresents detailed Python solutions for Physics and Astronomy topics, not normally covered in depth, because they would be too time-consumingPurchasers of the book can access the accompanying computer code via the Instructor Resources Download Hub.

Python for Asset Management
The asset management industry is undergoing a paradigm shift toward automation, transparency, and data-driven decision-making. Traditional tools (Excel, Bloomberg) are being replaced by programmable, scalable solutions. Yet, most finance professionals lack accessible, practical training in applying Python to real portfolio problems.Python For Asset Management fills that gap. The book empowers non-programmers—portfolio managers, risk analysts, and students—to implement advanced models themselves. It responds to the growing demand for quantitative literacy in finance, especially in sustainable investing and smart beta strategies, areas of active research for both of the authors.Features31 hands-on Python exercises with real data and executable code.Complete GitHub repository (MIT License) with all scripts, data pipelines, and results.Step-by-step implementation of VaR (historical, parametric, Monte Carlo), bond immunization, and factor models.Real-world decision tools — e.g., build a bullet/barbell/ladder bond portfolio, run Brinson-Fachler attribution, or backtest smart beta vs. index.Immediate applicability — every exercise produces a deliverable (e.g., optimal weights, risk report, attribution table) ready for client meetings.Focus on practical asset management workflows, not just theory.
