Ideas that outgrew
the paper.

Eleven books, from philosophy and the foundations of physics to actuarial science, finance, molecular biology and cybersecurity. Each began as research and grew into something longer — a way to think a subject through, from first principles to the page.

01

Published books

Philosophy

Thomas d'Aquin et Averroès

Aquinas and Averroës rejoin us today — a conversation across the centuries on artificial intelligence, ecology and identity. Neither treatise nor novel.

Quantum foundations

The i and the j

One century of experiments on the foundations of quantum mechanics — from Planck's quantum to the quaternionic question of whether nature needs more than the complex i.

Actuarial science

Wave Mechanics of Risk

A new paradigm for actuarial science: wave mechanics applied to catastrophe-risk pricing — a rigorous framework for modelling extreme risk. Volume I.

Actuarial science

Wave Mechanics of Risk — Numerical Recipes

Volume II. The computational methods behind the framework — numerical recipes for wave-mechanical catastrophe-risk pricing.

Quantitative finance

Financial Wave Mechanics

Option pricing as wave mechanics: restore the imaginary unit to Black–Scholes and the smile, barriers and default clusters follow in closed form. Volume I.

Quantitative finance

Financial Wave Mechanics — Volume II

Volume II. Numerical recipes for the quantum approach to pricing — Fourier methods, finite elements and Monte Carlo.

Molecular biology

Molecular Wave Mechanics

A probabilistic and quantum approach to molecular biology — wave mechanics from protein folding to genomics and drug design. Volume I.

Molecular biology

Molecular Wave Mechanics — Volume II

Volume II. Numerical recipes for molecular wave mechanics — machine learning and computation, from folds to neoantigens.

Cybersecurity

Wave-Based Cybersecurity

A new paradigm for attack and defence: cyber threats and protections modelled as waves — interference, phase traps and coherence.

Finance & technology

Blockchain for Financial Markets

A practitioner's guide to settlement, tokenization and distributed ledgers — and the redesign of post-trade workflows for real financial markets.

Finance & technology

Post-Quantum Settlement Infrastructure

Volume II. Post-quantum cryptography and its implications for settlement — preparing institutions for the transition to quantum-resistant systems.

Published by Seven Lions Editions

These books share one publisher — and one purpose beyond the page: every sale funds boarding schools for girls in Africa.

The two blockchain volumes double as the companion series to the interactive Blockchain Series site — the same framework, read two ways.

Full editions, ISBNs and the rest of the catalogue live with the publisher.
