Probability & Statistics Editorial Review
Probability Theory: A Concise Course received mixed reviews from customers. Some appreciate the technical mathematics and concise style of the book, which makes it an excellent reference book for intermediate math readers, who have prior knowledge in probability theory. The book is top-notch, rigorous, and covers a lot of ground with important theorems and proofs. However, the book is too concise and does not provide everyday examples to help readers grasp complex concepts. On the other hand, some reviewers who were hoping for more comprehensive material found this book too basic. Overall, the book is a great companion to an undergraduate probability intro course and an excellent reference book for those with prior knowledge.
