Markov Chains and Mixing Times
by D. A. Levin, Y. Peres, E. L. Wilmer - American Mathematical Society
An introduction to the modern approach to the theory of Markov chains. The main goal of this approach is to determine the rate of convergence of a Markov chain to the stationary distribution as a function of the size and geometry of the state space.
