Like its predecessor, this book starts from the premise that,
rather than being a purely mathematical discipline, probability
theory is an intimate companion of statistics. The book starts with
the basic tools, and goes on to cover a number of subjects in
detail, including chapters on inequalities, characteristic
functions and convergence. This is followed by a thorough treatment
of the three main subjects in probability theory: the law of large
numbers, the central limit theorem, and the law of the iterated
logarithm. After a discussion of generalizations and extensions,
the book concludes with an extensive chapter on martingales. The
new edition is comprehensively updated, including some new material
as well as around a dozen new references.
