Description:
This book presents elementary probability theory with interesting and well-chosen applications that illustrate the theory. An introductory chapter reviews the basic elements of differential calculus which are used in the material to follow.
Review Quotes: From the reviews: This book s introductory sections on probability theory are typical of most textbooks in the content of presentation . There are many examples with detailed solutions and a large number of exercises are included at the ends of the chapters. used as a textbook for engineers, computer scientists and students in economics and finance will be able to understand it. This book would be my choice for a textbook if I were to teach a course in probability theory for math majors. (Charles Ashbacher, The Mathematical Association of America, November, 2009) This textbook is designed for a course in probability theory at the undergraduate post-calculus level. The book should be a good choice for a course at the indicated level. (Gerald A. Heuer, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1192, 2010)
