Introduction to Probability, Statistics, and Random Processes Paperback – 24 Aug. 2014

This is a brilliant book whose author has gone out of his way to demystify an hitherto convoluted and obscure subject.Prof Hossein Pishro-Nik is a great teacher both on camera and print. He effortlessly and successfully communicates the fundamentals with such expertise from a student standpoint. His pleasant pedagogy disabuses the dog-eared theorem-lemma of yore. A proper mastery of the first 7 chapters is adequate to provide a solid foundation to explore other advanced realms of probability as applied in different genres of statistics.Buying this book and investing time reading it, doing the exercises and watching the videos on the book's webpage amounts to more than a free intellectual gift to any consumer.

Though there is a freely available online version of the book, sometimes paper version is handy. This book is one of best book if you want to learn from basic to advance topic in Probability and Statistics. The book arrived in expected time in a standard amazon package.

This book explains many concepts in probability in a very simple way, it has many solved examples and many exercises. I would recommend having the solution manual as well for self studying.

This is an excellent text on the topic of probability theory, for those totally new or for those reminding themselves of the basic concepts. The book works from many examples rather than abstract definitions, and includes fully worked questions and answers expanding on the material to give the reader a sense he has really understood the topic. References to useful formulae outside of probability theory are explained in detail rather than assumed to be within the domain of the reader's prior knowledge.I should say the author has made the text available freely online, at [...]However, the book's binding is simply glue on the soft spine, which means you need to use something very heavy to hold the book open on the required page; the natural elasticity pulls the book closed quite strongly. A proper binding would avoid this problem. Alternatively you could break the spine to keep it open. I deduct one star for the poor physical quality of the book. The high quality text really deserves a grander physical manifestation than this.

I’ve finished reading this book , which took me 4 months. Although there are some typos, the overall reading experience was good. This book broadens your scope and opens a door for more in-depth math subjects.

If you give it enough time this book has a lot to offer.

great book fully explained for the layman

My book arrived with many pages half printed. As this is the case for many pages in the book, I have to assume even the most cursory thumb through on book purchase by the seller would have revealed it. I don't have the resources or time off to request a refund on return so they win. Beware.
