Summary

Probability: An Introduction provides the fundamentals of the subject, requiring minimal algebraic and precalculus skills from the reader. It begins with an introduction to sets and set operations, spends a considerable amount of time explaining counting techniques and then presents probability in an axiomatic way, never losing sight of elucidating the subject through very concrete examples. The book contains numerous examples and solved exercises taken from various fields, and includes computer explorations using MATLAB and MAPLE. A CD-ROM with computer code, project files, and third-party applications accompanies the text.
