Reviews for the first edition: 'I found the book interesting and entertaining ... The level of difficulty of the material is well judged ...' D. A. Stephens, The Statistician 'This text provides a blend of the traditional disciplines of probability theory and the relatively new field of information science in a well written manner ... the author succeeds in introducing concepts of probability theory gently paced and user friendly as stated on page xi of the preface ... The blend of probability theory and information science makes this an innovative text... The innovative blend of probability theory and information theory make this text a good choice for teachers wanting to present both a traditional background and modern ideas to their students.' Journal of the American Statistical Association 'Reviewing this book was a pleasure. Clearly the author is delighted by his subject and this attitude is communicated well ... this is an excellent book which will make a stimulating text for Honours courses in probability for applied mathematicians, statisticians, physicists or engineers' John M. Halley, The Statistician '... a nice introductory text for a modern course on basic facts in the theory of probability and information. The author always has in mind that many students, especially those specializing in informatics and/or technical sciences, do not often have a firm background in traditional mathematics. Therefore he attempts to keep the development of material gently paced and user-friendly.' EMS NewsletterMore details

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Adobe-DRM, a „hard” copy protection. If the necessary requirements are not met, unfortunately you will not be able to open the eBook. You will therefore need to prepare your reading hardware before downloading.
