Overview
This classic textbook, now reissued, offers a clear exposition of modern probability theory and of the interplay between the properties of metric spaces and probability measures. The new edition has been made even more self-contained than before; it now includes a foundation of the real number system and the Stone-Weierstrass theorem on uniform approximation in algebras of functions. Several other sections have been revised and improved, and the comprehensive historical notes have been further amplified. A number of new exercises have been added, together with hints for solution.Editorials
From the Publisher
"A marvelous work which will soon become a standard text in the field for both teaching and reference...a complete and pedagogically perfect presentation of both the necessary preparatory material of real analysis and the proofs througout the text. Some of the topics and proofs are rarely found in other textbooks." Proceedings of the Edinburgh Mathematical SocietyBook Details
