Description:
This book is an introduction to probability theory covering laws of large numbers, central limit theorems, random walks, martingales, Markov chains, ergodic theorems, and Brownian motion. It is a comprehensive treatment concentrating on the results that are the most useful for applications. Its philosophy is that the best way to learn probability is to see it in action.

The book is addressed to readers familiar with applied mathematics at the advanced undergraduate level. The text is concerned with probability theory and all of its mathematics, but now viewed in a wider context than that of the standard textbooks.
