Ask HN: Resource for Mathematics of Finance

Hello!

I’m looking for recommendations for a good resource on financial mathematics, maybe from first principles. Ideally, I’d like to understand more complex topics such as Monte Carlo simulations, expected value, Black-Shoales, etc.

My goal is not to be a quant but to be able to speak intelligently about the field. (I don’t play baseball but I know what an ERA is, kind of thing).

Any help is appreciated.

Merry Christmas!
