The author considers it his duty to thank Dmitry Sviridenko, who undertook the important work of the responsible editor of the monograph, and the reviewers of the monograph, Sergey Parinov and Yuri Perevyshin, for the challenging work of reviewing the manuscript with the new theory at a high professional level.
The author is grateful to the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation (Alexander von Humboldt – Stiftung), which provided a scholarship that enabled the author many years ago to witness for the first time how developed market economies work and how financial markets function in West Germany.
The author is grateful to Moscow Exchange and Intercontinental Exchange Futures Europe for providing access to historical data and online quotations.
The author is also grateful to the investment companies FINAM and Interactive Brokers for their excellent broker-intermediary functions with the IB and ICE exchanges, respectively.
The author sincerely thanks the first reader of the book manuscript, Konstantin Gluschenko, for critical comments, consideration of which made the material of the book more understandable for readers who hold fundamentally different orthodox economic views.
In conclusion, the author would like to take the opportunity, unfortunately, very late, to pay back some of his old debts.
First, the author would like to thank Vladimir Evstigneev for his informal but very informative and useful review of the author’s first paper on probabilistic economic theory in the collection of papers of the Russian Academy of Sciences and State Administration [Kondratenko, 2005] and Ksenia Kondratenko for her help in preparing the manuscript of this paper. Second, the author notes the important role that Professor George Judge of the University of California (Berkeley) played in this research by approving and enthusiastically supporting that very first paper 15 years ago, for which the author is immensely grateful.
