Riassunto

This textbook is an introduction to probability theory using measure theory. It is designed for graduate students in a variety of fields (mathematics, statistics, economics, management, finance, computer science, and engineering) who require a working knowledge of probability theory that is mathematically precise, but without excessive technicalities. The text provides complete proofs of all the essential introductory results. Nevertheless, the treatment is focused and accessible, with the measure theory and mathematical details presented in terms of intuitive probabilistic concepts, rather than as separate, imposing subjects. In this new edition, many exercises and small additional topics have been added and existing ones expanded. The text strikes an appropriate balance, rigorously developing probability theory while avoiding unnecessary detail.

Recensione:

This is a fine textbook on probability theory based on measure theory. The parts of measure theory that are needed are developed within the book and a teacher of measure theory could find them quite useful. The construction of the Lebesgue measure (extension theorem) is unusual and interesting. --Mathematical Reviews
